Episode 34 – Changes to Real Estate Laws

In Episode 34 of Building Wealthy Habits Advisors, Simone Knepper and Brooke Miller join us to discuss recent changes in real estate laws!

In episode 34 of the Building Wealthy Habits Advisors, we are absolutely thrilled to have back two of our favorite guests, Simone Knepper and Brooke Miller to talk about the recent changes in the real estate industry regarding commissions and how they are negotiated. We talk about how the National Association of Realtors was involved in a lawsuit that resulted in greater transparency surrounding realtor commissions. Brooke and Simone shed light on the biggest change – that the buyer broker compensation field is no longer listed on the MLS, and commissions are now subject to negotiation. The conversation highlights the importance of having a trusted advisor who can navigate these changes and provide valuable guidance throughout the home buying or selling process. If you walk away with anything from this episode we hope it’s that there is real value in working with a professional agent who can offer expertise and protection in the transaction.
