As a real estate professional, your work doesn't fit neatly into the typical 9-to-5 schedule, and weekends? Well, that's your busy time too! With the recent NAR/Sitzer/Burnett Court Settlement Agreement taking effect on August 17, 2024, things just got a bit more challenging, especially when it comes to working with buyers. Now, when you're signing contracts with home buyers, it feels a lot like what listing agents do with sellers. One big change that's causing quite a bit of anxiety among agents nationwide is the new rule about commissions. Simply put, you can no longer list commissions or any type of compensation on MLS listings across the country. While you can still share this information on your website, signs, texts, emails and even verbally over the phone, the MLS is off-limits. That's where Compensation Quest (CQ) comes in. CQ is a membership-based platform designed specifically for real estate professionals like you, and it operates independently from NAR or any MLS. It allows you to quickly and legally share your seller's property address, commission details, and any bonuses with other members. For years, the U.S. Real Estate Co-Broke System has been working effectively, ensuring fairness for both buyers and sellers. We'll put an end to the constant calls and texts you've been receiving these past months asking about commissions. Join CQ today and spread the word to your colleagues and fellow agents. Together, we can get back to doing what we do best!
