Listen "Episode 065: College Scandal, RE Teams are Exploding, & NAR responds"
Episode Synopsis
Byron and Nicole turn their attention to three new topics, including what Byron states is “the biggest racket in America right now.”
Racket 1: Is college the biggest racket in America?
Some real estate executives are among those being charged in the college fraud scheme to get kids into top schools. While this topic is all over the news, Byron and Nicole discuss whether or not college itself is a racket, which accounts for insurmountable debt. on Inman: bit.ly/reexecscharged
Racket 2: Teams are exploding, Brokers don’t know what to do
Are you a single agent or on a team? Nicole has seen real estate teams go through big changes, with many now focusing on how to train and benefit agents. With team production growing at a rapid pace, brokers aren’t sure how to handle it. We think it’s a good thing - teams add value to every transaction. here: bit.ly/reteamsgrowing
Racket 3: NAR responds to an op-ed on WSJ
Byron and Nicole do agree that buyer brokers have value, but do they agree on why? They discuss an article where NAR defends the value of REALTORS®. What are your thoughts? : bit.ly/NARdefendsagents
