Elevate your value with clear communication of real estate professional fees

Agent, Commission Lawsuit, Contributors, HWmember, Opinion, Real Estate, Real Estate Agents /

With the NAR settlement behind us and new rules on professional fees in place, conversations with clients have shifted. MLSs no longer display offers of compensation, and most buyers are signing Buyer Agency Agreements that spell out how their real estate professional will be paid.
