The Gavel Dangles for National Association of Realtors
FTC Getting Restless, Ready to Resume Their Probe
Pocket Listings and Compensation Rules: The Realty Drama Continues…
Ready for the boiling hot take? Prepare yourself – it’s hotter than a vindaloo curry on a summer day.
This whole courthouse drama seems like one big, overly complicated “Property Brothers” episode. The Federal Trade Commission is acting like a homeowner who insisted on a marble countertop but now can’t believe it’s expensive and actually took effort to install.
On the other hand, we’ve got the National Association of Realtors, doing their best impression of an overbooked, undercaffeinated interior designer trying to make varnishes meet. Pocket listings? Cooperative compensation rules? It’s like they’re trying to turn a modest colonial into a Neoclassical masterpiece with a dollar-store budget.
While the outcome is uncertain, one thing is for sure. The drama isn’t going anywhere. Pass the popcorn and let’s see whether the house of cards remains standing, or if the FTC, with their ‘fixer-upper’ attitude, pull off a dramatic demolition. Slide your feet up, folks, this reality realty show is just ramping up! You really can’t make this stuff up. It’s like ‘Days of Our Lives’ with hardwood flooring and a newly renovated master bath!
