The 2025 housing market is changing fast — and builders are leading the shift. In this episode of Get Real with Eddie on 1340 AM WJOL, Eddie Ruettiger and co-host Nancy Vallee from EXIT Real Estate Specialists break down what’s driving these BIG changes in new construction, buyer demand, and home prices across Joliet, Plainfield, Shorewood, and surrounding areas.

We’ll talk about why builders are pulling back, how AI is powering a new construction boom, what buyers are doing differently, and what this means for home sellers heading into 2025. Plus, real-world sale data for Shorewood and a story that might make you rethink Airbnb.

If you want to stay ahead of the 2025 real estate market — whether you’re buying, selling, or investing — this is the episode you need to hear.
