02:54 Nicole’s response as to whether they were too in favor of Zillow in their last episode

05:07 I don’t understand where people confuse facts with…

06:48 This test might give agents an opportunity…

07:11 Another comment: “What’s insane is touring a home without…”

09:37 Agents listen up: Your opinions on whether or not…

15:41 We all agree buyer consultations are great… If you force feed it you might be pushing that buyer away

17:41 Southwest55Plus comment: “If every real estate company can…we will have a mess”

18:54 Agents always get wrapped up… Who does the consumer want to work with?

The first topic is a lawsuit by a seller against NAR, Realogy, Home Services of America, RE/MAX, and Keller Williams. This seller states that they were forced to pay for the commission of the buyer’s agent. This raises a lot of questions including, does the real estate industry need to change its processes?

Racket #2: Millennial Homeowners have Regrets: bit.ly/millennialhomebuyersregret
