Listings with advertised offers of compensation are no longer allowed in an MLSPrior to this weekend, NAR members who listed properties included offers of shared commissions within their local MLS.

You could deduct advertising fees. 

Sometimes players need physical therapy (rehab), some need more 1-on-1 coaching (optimization/advertising) and some to be traded (1031 exchange).

Location near jobs, tourism, or other attractions (like an airport).  

This has always been the case, but the industry is taking strides to make it more fluid.Investor Sellers can choose to pay some or all of the buyer's agent commission (that's not new) but this can no longer be advertised through the local MLS AND this must go through the seller to the agent versus through the listing agent like it did in the past.Investor buyers must be signed with an agent to step foot in listed homes.

If the software is not simplifying your life or making you more accurate, you shouldn't use it.Software does have extremely helpful features like online payments, marketing syndication (click a button, and your property is advertised on multiple sites), electronic document review/signing, maintenance tracking, and owner reports.

Finally, it if you are advertising your own company you probably shouldn't be giving negative reviews, especially if you never even talked to us.

You may find that rates could be at least a $1000 higher than advertised or more.

The area is a harbor with a beautiful beach, seals, whales, otters and  lots of tourism and mixed uses.  

I got a 5 month window from them in part because they don't want the owner to start advertising it for rent or having potential renters go by the home.
