UnderContract TakingBackup Imagine if HGTV got a little Bravo drama and a dose of NPR self-awareness — that’s us. Real Estate. Real Life. Real Stories. You’re our kind of people.

We’re going off-roading with real estate — taking it out of the Tahoe — and bringing in backup.�Welcome to Under Contract, Taking Backup with Lindsay Hart and Chelsey Smith —�the real estate lore you didn’t know you needed. We’re veering off the paved path of perfectly vanilla MLS listings with backup opinions, backup stories, backup facts, backup plans, and back up guests — the chaos of real est

ate and real life. You may be familiar with Lindsay's Tahoe Talks, but if not, they started back in 2016(ish) and we are taking inspiration from it; going on a longer proverbial road trip —— Annnnd going off-road, taking the scenic route: hitting potholes, veering off topic/off-script sometimes, you know but always winding up back at real estate - because that’s what real life looks like. If you’ve ever treated Zillow like a guilty pleasure, fallen down a listing rabbit hole, cried over an inspection report, or survived a deal worthy of its own reunion episode — grab a drink, pull up a chair, and settle in. Welcome to our Podcast: UnderContract TakingBackUp - Real Estate. xoxo
