National Association of Realtors spent > $18M in Q4 2023 and > $29M in Q3 2022 on lobbyists (with a total reported spend of $53M in 2023 and $82M in 2022). The organization's franchise is so valuable, in part, because of the central role home ownership plays in our economy (including outsourced retirement security) AND in our cultural narrative and myths which intertwine in a feedback loop favoring distortion and entrenchment (with membership dues and high commission fees driven largesse thrown around in DC as tuckpointing for the mortar). Brokerage services in other developed economies are generally priced at one-half the fees sandbagging homebuyers in America. Until now, the standard six percent commission has defied the gravitational pull and margin-contracting pressure of technology on the industry. No more, perhaps...Seems like so much of the kabuki artifice of the transaction is built into the trope that the seller pays the commission. As though the seller's money doesn't come from buyer... Is the add-on of inflated juicy title insurance the next target to feel the squeeze?

Avoid home sale closing delays! Ensure Stewart has all applicable homeowner's association ("HOA") information, including the name of the HOA management company, before closing day. Essentially, a home sale can’t close until outstanding HOA balances are paid out of proceeds from the sale, or the buyer agrees to take on the debt. Realtors should inform their sellers of possible upfront HOA demand costs. #closingtip #escrowservices #stewartcares

More costs for buyers While the new rules would not prohibit sellers from offering to pay a buyer’s agent on the side, it’s possible many sellers won’t do so. That would mean home buyers will have to foot the bill for their agent’s fees themselves. For a $400,000 house, paying a 3% commission to a buyer’s agent would add $12,000 in extra expenses for an aspiring homeowner, who also has to come up with the down payment, closing costs and other fees associated with purchasing a home. Full Story Below
Ending 6% commissions could turn out to be a ‘Venus Flytrap situation’ for home buyers, economist says

Choosing the right offer for your home goes beyond just the highest bid. Consider these points for a smoother transaction: - Cash Offers: They bypass loan complications and expedite the closing process. - Minimal Contingencies: Offers with fewer conditions mean a simpler deal and less risk of it falling through. - Qualified Buyers: A well-qualified buyer may present a lower initial offer but be willing to negotiate higher. - Timeline Flexibility: An offer that accommodates your moving schedule can greatly ease the transition. It's essential to weigh the overall benefits, not just the offer amount, to ensure a decision that brings both financial advantage and peace of mind.

Adapting to changes in the real estate industry, including staying informed about NAR's updates, is crucial for all stakeholders involved in property transactions. By navigating the evolving real estate landscape and understanding market conditions sellers and agents can work together to ensure that properties are sold for their true value. Understanding and believing that strategic investments attract more buyers and potentially lead to higher offers is what will make the biggest impact. The real estate market is constantly evolving, and it's important for all parties involved - sellers, buyers, real estate agents, and lenders - to adapt to these changes to capitalize on this latest opportunity.

The changes brought on by the NAR settlement put power in the hands of the homeowner. Agent commissions are sure to become more competitive and the cost of selling a home will go down. But it's hogwash to expect the cost of buying a home to come down! The real driver in today's market is the shortage of homes and the too many buyers who want them. And if interest rates come down a point by year-end, we’ll see home prices up another 10% as the buyers rush into the market. That said, it's a scary time for real estate agents. The decades-long certainty about the 5-6% commission is over. But whenever there's an industry shakeup - and I’ve seen many - good things come out of it that we can't see from where we’re standing now. It forces innovation and the creation of new business models. Change is nothing new to the real estate industry. What I know for sure is that real estate brokerages and their agents are some of the most resilient people in the world. They're creative and tough, and this opens the door for agents to use that resilience and creativity to come up with new and better ways to service their homesellers and customers. I have no doubt in my mind they will do exactly that, and I can’t wait to see what they come up with. #NAR #NARSettlement #RealEstate #RealEstateExpert #RealEstateChange #RealEstateBroker #RealEstateAdvice #Change
