Here ya go. From a previous post.

Here's the infomration I've been sending to our Realtors to clarify all the concerns their Broker may be having.

Almost had a Buyers Agent pull out today, thinking we were committing Fraud on a deal that's due to close in less than a week!

The Newsletter that's causing so much chaos! -

Webinar with Jeff Watson, Ron Ballard, and Chris Mchlaughin (3 highly regarded Lawyers in our industry) -
