Operating under the aegis of Phoenix Rising Productions LLC, Shout It Out Loud is an independent consumer advocacy media resource. Originally founded to provide objective due diligence for individuals seeking legal counsel, the platform offers a necessary counter-narrative to the public relations campaigns and marketing materials that often obscure the true credibility, competence, and track record of licensed professionals.
Recognizing that consumer protection extends beyond the courtroom, Shout It Out Loud has officially broadened its advocacy mandate to include the real estate industry.
Real estate transactions—encompassing brokers, salespersons, landlords, and property management firms—present the same high-stakes "Your Money or Your Life" impact as legal services. Decisions involving housing, property management, and contractual leasing directly affect personal shelter, long-term financial stability, and public welfare.
In expanding into real estate oversight, Shout It Out Loud remains committed to employing the exact same evidentiary standards previously applied to law firms. The platform utilizes factual rigor, primary source public records, trade and industry citations, court filings, and regulatory filings.
Specifically, Shout It Out Loud evaluates industry conduct against statutory obligations defined in Chapter 339 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri (RSMo Chapter 339), administrative enforcement by the Missouri Real Estate Commission (M.R.E.C.), and the professional Code of Ethics established by trade associations such as the National Association of REALTORS® (N.A.R.). This comprehensive approach ensures consumers can evaluate real estate professionals with clarity and confidence.
