There’s no question that real estate commissions as we know it are on borrowed time, and this isn’t just putting a squeeze on the agent, it’s affecting the traditional brokerage too.
The “broke broker” has been a long running industry joke, but if we’re not future-proofing our businesses, it might actually become the reality.
Is there a way for us to stay profitable and still have a role in the future of the real estate transaction? How do we hedge against the suppression and eventual elimination of commissions?
In this episode, I’m joined by Keller Williams Regional Director, and author of NYT Bestseller “Wealth Can’t Wait”, Paul Morris. We talk about where real estate is headed, and how to keep the brokerage model alive.
