Discount Real Estate is Not Going to Change the Industry

Posted by pete quinlan on Oct 7, 2007

I am fairly certain the real estate industry is going to see some significant changes over the next few years. I’m just not sure the discount model is the answer. Throwing less experienced agents at an incredibly significant purchase seems strange. What about a model that focuses on the buyer/seller…a customer service based model. I’ve been through a couple purchases an a sale over the past two years and have enjoyed incredible service. Granted, my agent was my in-laws, and treated the transaction as if were their own. What if every agent treated the transaction as if it were for their children? I don’t think there would be any questions about that model! Now, how to build a system that focuses on the client!
