Is it worth it to keep paying for the "REALTOR" status in Massachusetts?
Hi, I'm a Broker in MA with just one agent in the company (my admin). Mainly the Brokerage is for me just to sell the properties that we fix and flip and save the commission. We do about 20-25/yr so financially it makes sense. Right now, I do have the "REALTOR" status but wondering if it make sense to keep paying the $800/yr to keep the status? I'm not a typical Realtor perse looking for clients so I don't need the trust factor that may go with the REALTOR symbol in my marketing or anything. I understand there are some protections that go along with it with all the law suits going around but hardly doubt they would go after an office with two agents in it. Any thoughts? Thank you!
