• How will agents provide advice even though only the vendor pays them?

• The skills gap in agents across Australia.

• Problem with dumbed down “popular” agent training.

• The small percentage of agents he thinks are able to become professional

• Scarcity mindset versus abundance mindset and how this affects consumers.

• Is the end of real estate commissions in sight?

• The surprising churn rate of sales agents.

• Are Purple Bricks really a disruptor?

• What this unregulated market costs buyers.

The future looks bright for some but not all agents. This is one very interesting interview, especially for buyers and sellers who’ll want to be able deal only with professional agents.
