Dishin' Dirt on Ending Broker-to-Broker Compensation: A Necessary Change

In this episode of Dishin' Dirt, I discuss two critical issues in the real estate industry: the urgent need to eliminate broker-to-broker compensation and the alarming rise of the Green Mirage scam targeting homeowners. I address the legal risks associated with broker compensation and advocate for a more transparent commission structure that prioritizes client interests.
