#91: New Podcast Direction + State of the Market with Mark Sprague

<p>We have a new, slightly different (and hopefully upgraded) direction for Building Optimal, and are excited to share it with you in this&nbsp;episode.</p><p>We also visit with Mark Sprague, State Director of Information Capital for Independence Title. Mark is one of the most respected real estate market analysts and forecasters in Texas, and shares some of his insights with us in this short, 25-minute episode. In full disclosure, 75% of the information Mark Shares is specific to Austin or Texas, but 25% covers a national focus.</p><p><br></p><p>Enjoy!</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Tools to make more money and grow your biz</strong></p><p>Need a little help growing your business or making more money at it?
