“Commission will remain at current levels or even increase as home prices fall”? So that means home owners who have lost equity for the last 3 years will be willing to give away even more equity to commission. That is the most absurd comment I have heard about the down market so far.

Real Estate Offices Are Tombstone Monuments to The Past; Large beautiful real estate offices are tombstone monuments to last century's business model. They are unnecessary overhead that do not add value to the sale process. Most agents found sitting in an office are the 80% group which sells less than 6 homes a year. The top producers (who make 80% of the sales) will rarely be found sitting in an office. They are out in the field where the buyers and sellers are. With cell phones, laptops and wireless internet our office is where ever we are at any point and place in time. We do not believe the consumers will continue to subsidize the old real estate business model. We founded www.WebMLS.net Realtors in 2003 as the first virtual real estate brokerage. All of our agents work from their home office and laptop computers when in the field. We pass huge savings to the consumer. Larry A.

Box 757, West Chester OH 45071 We will list your home in MLS & Realtor.com for only $500 and sell your home for as low as 2% (Includes Full service).

I founded WebMLS.net in 2003 as a virtual real estate brokerage. We now have 126 agents working from their home offices in all 1st, 2nd and some 3rd tier cities in 9 Ohio MLS systems and boards. I run the company from my home office with out any staff or overhead. The consumer could care less whether we have a separate commercial office or not. They love the fact that we give them full service at a much lower price. This is just more of the death rattle of last century’s business model. We must reinvent our business or we will be replaced. Instead we have groups like this trying to handicap those of us on the forefront of change with stupid rules and regs. Larry A. Whited, Sr. GRI, CRS, CRB www.WebMLS.net
