Regarding the inevitable... Katie is correct. We must position ourselves as the area experts and guide/service the client to free themselves of stress, time and financial hardship of costly mistakes when going through a real estate transaction. I like to compare/think of our industry as the airline and not the travel agent. The customer/consumer still need expert guidance from getting lost in the multitude of free IDX/MLS sites along with area information and expertise on the inventory and market trends. If a customer rebels (and they will) it's usually do to an ineffecient agent. Customers pick up on the Realtors market knowledge & experience quickly. WILL the shared system (RETS) Real Estate Transaction Standard have the listing agents contact info or "blind" contact info based on who holds the technology (ie.
