I Don't Want More Choice; I Just Want Nicer Things!
- Edina Monsoon
I was honored to be invited to the podcast with JamesEdition to share my thoughts on working in two vastly different markets and what is on the horizon. In this podcast episode, I spent time with JamesEdition's CEO, Eric Finnas Dahlstrom for what I hope you find as an insightful discussion about the vibrant Chicago real estate market and the emerging hotspot of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. I was able to share my experience and knowledge of the Chicago market, highlighting its resilience and ongoing evolution. We explored trends shaping buyer preferences post-pandemic, emphasizing the importance of quality design and amenities in urban living. Additionally, I was excited to share insights into Puerto Vallarta's real estate landscape, discussing changing demographics and the growing popularity of fractional ownership models in luxury resort communities.
