Episode Details

Major TCPA updates take effect on January 27, 2025, and real estate agents need to tighten up consent practices—especially for auto-dialers and prerecorded messages, which require written consent. Manual calls to FSBOs or expired listings are still allowed, but you must check the Do Not Call list and document consent carefully. Verbal authorization can work for one-to-one calls with past clients, yet written consent is needed for anything automated. Ultimately, staying compliant means getting clear, explicit permission for each contact method and honoring opt-out requests right away, or you could face hefty fines.
