Where are the real-a-tore Queens who have all the pull with that NAR?

NAR has a monopoly on the info and for a "fee" they will allow access to the system.

The Obama administration publicly brow beats banks for not doing enough short sales when they need to look no further than NAR to see real abuse being perpetuated daily.

Not sure if anyone else has had that@Russell Brazil According to NAR code of ethics in VA:We have duties to the public, our clients and other agents and the duties to our clients are listed first for a reason.

NAR dues (mandatory for MLS and brokerage requirements in many places), MLS fees, E&O insurance, car, gas, mileage and marketing which alone is often several thousand dollars per month.  

Yes listen to Will and Jeff.Also I've bought a system (NARS) from a guru that deals directly with land trusts.

I have a hard time valuing things based on the, "Principle of substitution" that NAR has promulgated to optimize their agency model commissions.

Agree with @Don Konipol and @Jaysen Medhurst.Found a stat on the NAR website "FSBOs accounted for 7% of home sales in 2017.

Align yourself with a Realtor in your area that can do RPR, it's a national based program through NAR.

In others ("wet funding") you must bring your own via transactional funding, or other means.Acting as a Principal in the transaction (Article 4 NAR Code) will allow you maximum flexibility while avoiding messy issues of Agency.
