INDUSTRY UPDATE | Dylan and Travis return to cut through the real estate industry's latest noise and focus on what agents and clients actually need to know. They unpack the interconnected debates surrounding Clear Cooperation, private listings, seller choice, the Zillow vs. Compass dispute, and the growing portal wars reshaping the industry.
They also break down the origins of Clear Cooperation, the rise of private listings and office exclusives, and the competing interests driving today's industry debates and what agents should focus on while the dust settles: clear communication, client education, and avoiding distractions from industry noise.
