How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

Whar are we paying dues for? The board office doesn’t look out for the agents at all? You sell rights to Zillow and Redfin and our sites realtor . Com mean nothing. You really need to go back to the little guys and not higher ups

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

After listening to the training today on How to Talk to Buyers: I feel this could be handled so much better. 1- the one hour slated for today's presentation was way too short. So much is left unanswered that could have been answered or presented today. 2-establishing a significant new rule in response to the lawsuits before establishing HOW realtors can get paid in this new commission structure is rude and irresponsible to every paying More member. 3- how about addressing the reality that many buyers cannot afford to pay us or will refuse to, AND sellers will most likely be unwilling to pay any or part of the difference. Why should they?- they are suing on this exact premise. Why would a seller want to pay for the buyer's realtor??
I understand the complexity of all this but I really see the cart before the horse. Everyone at More will get their same pay in 2024, will still have a job and will.charge the same to members/realtors. And what is the board doing about the 1000's of agents that are clueless about this and/or won't comply?? "Guide" us that it's up to realtors to submit complaints?? I could go on but will stop, I never feel like anyone at the board listens anyway. Years ago I reported a serious safety issue to Kate Sax and she did absolutely nothing. A mob action of 50 or more people showed up on the lawn of an open house at my listing, I had a very hard time keeping them all from trying to get into the house. She never sent out a notice to other realtors, did nothing.

For the amount of dues I pay why can’t a mailed reminder for dues be sent? A missed email can happen in a busy world.

I think the cost to be a part of this board and others is really just getting to be too much of a burden on our people. We have to look at ways to reduces spending not increase fees.

the value you add is wonderful, yet there has to be a better way to deliver without so much of a cost in this market.

How did we disappoint you and what can we do to make things right?

Besides being a managing broker, I am also a certified real estate appraiser. There are properties that I appraise for a purchase that sometimes come in below the contract price. But yet I see the closed price of that particular property being reported sold at the contract price when there is an appraisal on that property below the contract price. How is this possible? In my opinion there is an overpriced sale in the system. Why not include a copy of an appraisal if one has been done on the property and include it in the listing as a supplement. It does not have to be the entire appraisal, but a date and a appraised value. It appears that the structure of the listing report is flawed, no matter how much the property gets appraised it is reported as the contract price or higher, even though it was appraised a lot lower, regardless of a lot lower appraised value. There is also a misleading info. on listing reports, regarding room count above or below grade, and square footage is not calculated accurately.

High fee and the mls is so outdated! It cannot compete with competition like Redfin and Zillow. Although you try to get tools and apps like home.com (that Homesnap was a joke).
The fees are going up each year and I don’t see the value for it and it’s just getting worst
