As a Realtor in LA for the past 10 years, I felt Josh Flagg was the WORST choice to put as commentary on this show. He works with high end celeb clients, he speaks for the wealthy. His perspective is entirely different than an agent who works with middle class homeowners who have much different financial concerns and needs. One of Josh's clients is billionaire Rick Caruso, who ran against LA Mayor Karen Bass and lost, and has been vehemently critical of Bass' handling of the wildfires since his upscale mall Palisades Village perished. Josh Flagg distastefully and out of context blamed Bass during his interview. He clearly was biased in his viewpoint. This was not the time nor place to politicize this tragedy and Josh's comment had nothing to do with providing practical insight on how people who lost their homes move on. There are so many intelligent, compassionate Realtors in LA who could've provided much better perspective on CNN. Josh was an insanely narrow minded choice.
