Overview

Greg shares a new AI-built Chrome extension that solves a surprisingly common MLS workflow problem before Rob and Greg revisit last week's conversation with Professor Hayunga. They dig deeper into the debate over private listings, buyer behavior, and whether exclusivity can actually increase sale prices. The conversation expands into real estate auctions, the purpose of industry policy, NAR governance, and the upcoming legal battle between Zillow and MRED over listing access and the Zillow Listing Access Standards.

Key Takeaways

• Greg explains his new Chrome extension that copies MLS numbers from major listing portals.
• More analysis of Professor Hayunga's research on private listings and buyer behavior.
