In the dynamic world of real estate, staying informed about industry developments is crucial for both buyers and sellers. Recently, there has been news about a legal settlement addressing the technicalities of agent commission payments. At Ashby & Graff Real Estate, we understand the importance of transparency in every aspect of the home buying and selling process. As such, we want to assure our clients that while these changes may impact certain practices, our commitment to clarity and openness remains steadfast.
Transparency has always been a cornerstone of our values here at Ashby & Graff Real Estate. We firmly believe that being upfront about costs and responsibilities is essential for building trust and empowering our clients to make informed decisions.
The recent settlement may introduce new rules regarding how agent commissions are communicated, particularly in relation to MLS listings. However, rest assured that our commitment to transparency means we have always been clear and upfront about commission costs and who is responsible for paying them. We have consistently engaged in open discussions with our clients regarding commission structures, and we will continue to do so.
Our team of independent contractor real estate agents operates with autonomy, giving them the freedom to negotiate fees based on their expertise, market conditions, and the unique needs of our clients.
