How to Take Control of the NAR Settlement Narrative w/Kelly Kilmer and Devon Doran Real Producers

    • Marketing

When it comes to the NAR settlement, it’s safe to say that the media took control of the narrative faster than real estate agents ever could. The result? Confusion and panic fueled by misinformation and a doom-and-gloom spin.
 
Some people think it’s a loss for the industry - that NAR didn’t protect agents, and that the days of buyer’s agents are numbered.
 
This couldn’t be further from the truth.
 
The settlement and the changes it’s going to bring to the industry aren’t all that bad. It’s going to raise our professionalism and transparency, so as long as you’re a great agent, it’s only going to make business better.
 
How do we separate media misinformation from what’s going on? How do we take control of the narrative and advise our clients correctly?
 
In this episode, I’m joined by two high-powered real estate professionals and Real Producers franchise owners, Kelly Kilmer and Devon Doran. We dive into why the settlement might benefit the industry.

 
As Realtors, we have to be the ones that control the narrative. This is a good opportunity to dive into conversations that got glossed over by the crazy market that low-interest rates provided. -Devon Doran
