big shake-up in the real estate world

[Jorge Vazquez]

So, there's been a big shake-up in the real estate world, especially for agents. Basically, the way agents earn their commissions is changing due to a settlement that's aiming to make things more transparent and fair. Now, agents have to be more upfront about their fees, which could mean buyers might have to pay their agent's commission directly. It's a bit of a mix-up, but the idea is to make the whole buying and selling process clearer and more competitive, which could end up saving people money. It's going to take some getting used to for everyone involved. If you are an agent, share your thoughts on how this will affect your business.
