In this episode of Dishin' Dirt, I discuss two issues. First, one of the lawyers from Sitzer/Burnette has stated publicly that he is coming for your JV agreements and any brokerage that encourages or compensation agents or brokers for pushing their ancillary products such as mortgage, title and insurance. It is past time to take heed of this significant risk.
Secondly, I examine the emergence of the American Real Estate Association (AREA) following the Sitzer/Burnett case. I evaluate the potential impact of AREA on the National Association of Realtors (NAR), emphasizing that while AREA may cause some challenges for NAR, it is not a direct threat.
I also addresses the ongoing issues surrounding broker-to-broker compensation and the need for higher standards in real estate education and accountability. He concludes by advocating for a cooperative relationship between AREA and NAR, provided that both organizations prioritize the interests of real estate agents and consumers.
