Navigating the impending commission changes can feel confusing, frustrating, and downright impossible. However, it's not impossible.

Today on the RealTrending podcast, we spoke with Mark McLaughlin, the Chief Strategist of Compass. He originally joined Compass back in 2018 when the brokerage purchased his firm, Pacific Union for $80 million. He left the Company back in 2021 to pursue other ventures and then returned in June of 2023 as Chief Strategist.

In this episode, Tracey and Mark dive deep into how Compass is navigating the upcoming changes and what brokers and agents should be aware of as we move forward. Mark explains Compass's growth strategy, including the mixing of organic growth and M&A, and some of their other unique practices and upcoming developments.

These views and voice are of Mark A. McLaughlin and not necessarily Compass policy or opinion.

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn:
