The flooring costs came out to $6000 total ($500/month) which effectively reduced their monthly payment to $1000/month. 

Lots of big changes and challenges to be navigated but I'll keep this short and sweet to focus on the real world effects of the NAR Commission Lawsuit Settlement for investors scheduled to begin in July 2024.- Buyers will have more (and less) options.

I'll start with the Axios interview I gave back in December and was published in January  Case and point, the low skilled Agents will be pushed out as there is now less low hanging fruit out there for them.The Elite Agents who have been superior to the low skilled Agents in everyway except for the willingness to work for a low wage, will no longer have to compete with 1,000's of low skilled Agents offering their services for a much lower price than the Elite Agents.Fewer low wage Agents means all that money rolls right back up to Daddy.

If you pay them too little, they will not have the money to market your property effectively.
