In this podcast John and Sián discuss three key topics:Being a mentor for the real estate industry - what attracted John to that particular roleRoPA - Regulation of Property Agents - how it can improve the property industryThe role inventory professionals play in supporting the industryJohn talks about his mentoring, how people buy from people and the trust needed to be able to complete a transaction in a world where technology can de-personalise the experience.Sián asks John whether external inventory suppliers (who are not included in the initial RoPA guidelines) if inventory professionals can be part of the conversation rather than just the afterthought they often are when it comes to shaping the industry.Disrupter or disruptive - both John and Sián feel that the terminology comes across as aggressive and that using the word 'improvement' is a more inclusive term when talking about all the changes to the industry.  Sián comments that the wealth of knowledge and skills in the industry can help form a more standardised reporting format and the benefits of using the term 'professional' when it comes to referring to clerks in order to change the industry's perception of the role. And finally, John talks about his experiences in an adjudication and how a judges words made a lasting impression.For more information and to connect with John: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnking56/Link for further information on RoPA - https://www.propertymark.co.uk/professional-standards/uk-regulation/ropa.htmlHave an important topic you want to share?
