That way you can never be accused of treating one differently than the other. 

I use my minimum scores to eliminate those applicants that I would otherwise be accused of discrimination against.

Agreed, and to wit: you can't accuse the title folks of "illegal bundling" if they refuse to do the deal at all.

They are accusing me of trying to make them fix and remodel my house, basically, which certainly is not the case.

I just received a threatening email from them accusing me of slander for warning people away from their scam- we're dealing with some real dirtbags here

But because Phil knows that if anything is done incorrectly along the way, you could get into a lot of trouble if accused of brokering Real Estate without a License, he justifies his 50/50 split of the many thousands of dollars profit that would otherwise be going to just you, by suggesting that he can give you the secret sauce that will allow you to not break those brokering rules.But I agree with Matt Jones' point. 

It seems to me that certain posts accuse members of being shills with false posts.

One of my buyers (who wholesales) property all the time accused me of doing something illegal by sending out a property locator/bird dog agreement to those who were interested.Is there something I am missing here with MLS listed properties?

It's ironic that you say that because in another post, Nationwide just accused me of posting horror stories about my business, because I'm trying to scare off the competition.

I will assume I am one of the people he is referring to as he has accused me of this several times before.
