Minimum Service Backlash
In an effort to curb the success of minimum service offices that offer things such as flat fee mls listings, real estate lobbies in several states have convinced their regulators to set state-wide minimum service standards.
I personally think this is completely anti-competitive behaviour that will only hurt the public image of real estate agents over the longterm (disclosure: I hold a license but don’t currently practice). I hope the DOJ steps up to the plate with it’s lawsuit.
