Real Estate News

The Department of Justice is now targeting buyer agents. A $418 million settlement with the National Association of Realtors (NAR) aims to make negotiating agent fees easier for buyers. However, the DOJ is concerned about potential workarounds by agents and how these changes might impact commission structures and overall compensation. While lower commissions could benefit investors, buyers might face higher out-of-pocket costs. Remember, consulting with professionals when making significant decisions like buying a home is crucial—saving a buck shouldn’t compromise quality advice.
