Real experts, real insights, all things Canadian real estate.
Chances are, if you’re a regular listener of the REAL TIME podcast, you may have heard that line before. If not, now you know exactly what to expect when listening to the show. REAL TIME is dedicated to sparking conversations with inspiring people who can help REALTORS® learn, grow, and of course, be entertained. After three years and more than 40 episodes, we’re reflecting on how far REAL TIME has come and where we’re headed.
The origin of REAL TIME
The podcast landscape has been steadily growing for years, and Canadians are captivated by the audio medium. In the past year, 14 million Canadians, or 44% of those 18 and over, have listened to podcasts. Furthermore, 29% of Canadian podcast listeners are so-called “power listeners” who listen to at least five hours of podcasts per week.
We understand REALTORS® spend a lot of time in transit and wanted to provide an on-the-go option for busy REALTORS® who would enjoy quality, industry-related content while commuting from a showing, appointment, or to their next open house.
The growth of REAL TIME
In our first three years we’ve seen a steady increase in listenership. Building on this trend, in 2024 we’re excited to continue creating content that speaks to REALTORS®.
