The Industry Relations Podcast is now available on your favorite podcast player!
Rob and Greg break down NAR's latest settlement move, Zillow's shift toward pre-marketing, and what it all means for the industry. The back half turns into a heated debate on new "public marketing" laws, the definition of marketing itself, and whether the MLS is a listing platform or a broker cooperative.
***CORRECTION: During the podcast we mistakenly commented that we had recieved an update about the recent NAR settlement 24hrs ahead of time. That is not accurate. We recieved the update the day of the news being announced. We apologize and regret the error.***
