Senior Real Estate Reporter Matthew Blake covers it all in this three-part HW+ series.
Hey, HousingWire readers!
To understand why real estate commissions are such a highly debated subject, you have to go back over 100 years to when today's structure for home sales commissions was established. From there, diving into lawsuits against the NAR would bring you up to speed on some of the current challenges to that system. To figure out what the future might be, you need to take a look ahead at the alternative business models that might make commissions irrelevant in the future.
Senior Real Estate Reporter Matthew Blake covers it all in this three-part HW+ series on the past, present, and future of real estate commissions, where he interviews the biggest stakeholders in the conversation and the agents who are navigating it all.
