However, not sure what it has to do with "lefty cities and right wing cities," everyone's getting gouged regardless of political affiliation. 

My questions is: 1. if I am planning buy/sell property only for myself, do I need to be affiliated with a broker?

It’s meant to attract viewers for their own marketing business and affiliate programs not to be genuinely helpful.

@Jenna Mayeres it's important that you affiliate with a good Brokerage that supports you and your investment interest. 

I am not affiliated in any way with them. 

So, you need to find a way to generate business, or do something else....If you've not given much thought to the brokerage that you want to work with (in Utah you have to be affiliated with a brokerage, not sure about Illinois) you should start thinking about that right away, you need to find a good fit. 

You can source from Craigslist, FB marketplace, Cozy (and it's affiliates), word of mouth, etc. 

The middle core of the former Affiliated Computer Services tower remained standing with a distinct lean after the implosion didn't go as planned.

These thoughts have nothing to do with political affiliation or preference so let us try to keep it civil.
