BTW great 1800 words Mr. Boero. I can see how the thousands I spend every year in fees to our MLS and local Associations. We have a split in Silicon Valley. All because of attitudes..for another time. My money will be where? back in my pocket? RPR? Hmm? I do like the idea that a Realtor who made a killing in the 90's won't be able to leverage their money, on SEO and such, against my skills, since I won't have to pay for widgety services to get in front. Do I have that right? Oh Poor Me! or poor who? Hopefully the crummy blackhats. :) signed white hat Interesting subject that has been simmering for a decade. BTW great 1800 words Mr. Boero.

But I guess that's ok as long as the corporations (NAR, banks, etc.) profit.....I mean, as long as you're not the appraiser, his wife, or his three young kids going homeless and hungry. When is enough enough with this corporatism? What amount of profits will make the heads of these businesses happy? (obvoiusly I know the answer to that....All OF IT!!) This has nothing to do with helping the end client (buyers and sellers) and has everything to do with lining the pockets of the NAR, big banks, and other various big businesses. No wonder our country is in the mess it's in. Luckily the poor have one thing left on their side.....numbers. Hopefully it doesn't come to a point where we have to use that though.
