The Real Estate Paradigm Shift and What it Means for HVAC Contractors

Speaker: Bethany Profaizer, Pearl Certification and Joe Gentile, Pearl Certification
Description: The past few years have seen some important changes in the way homeowners are buying, selling, maintaining, and valuing their homes.

And newly resourced consumers are in the driver's seat more than ever. Enter a pandemic that is affecting almost every market in unprecedented ways and you have a paradigm shift that is sure to affect all industries related to the housing market. Bethany Profaizer (VP of Contractor Partnerships) and Joe Gentile (VP of Real Estate) from Pearl Certification will talk about all of the above, as well as the huge opportunity for contractors ready to step up their game, fill in the gap, and position themselves as an ally for today's homeowners.
