In a recent study done by WAV Group, it was discovered that close to 50% of buyers think their agent spent less than 15 hours to successfully get them into a home. In reality, agents spend on average 80-100 hours per purchase transaction ‼️ Why the disconnect? 💲Agent's haven't had to articulate what they do for their buyers, as pre- National Association of REALTORS® settlement it was widely assumed that the agent's compensation was going to be covered by the seller (so why would the buyer care??) 🚚 As consumers, we're used to understanding the services we pay for. If we order on Amazon, we know what's happening through the process until the good gets to our door. It's time to fix the disconnect Follow the yellow dot... www.rayse.com 🟡 #realestate #homeownership #narsettlement #commissionlawsuits

Have you seen the guidelines & FAQ that the National Association of REALTORS® published on their site? ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gVPFCbpR It specifically states for buyers "Before signing this agreement, you should ensure it reflects the terms you have negotiated with your agent and that you understand exactly what services and value will be provided, and for how much." How are your agents making their services stand out for the fees they want to charge? For hundreds of brokers and their thousands of agents nationwide including NextHome, Inc., RE/MAX, Seven Gables Real Estate, Red Oak Realty, Coldwell Banker Village Properties, and broker members of California Regional MLS (CRMLS), PHOENIX REALTORS®, REsides, Inc., and Canopy MLS- they're using Rayse to not only win, but retain buyers.

Earlier this week, HousingWire shared an article for loan officers on how to get real estate agents to trust them. It's simple: being proactive and communicate. It's not just the LOs > agents. People in general- your customers, your business partners... we've become accustom to transparency & convenience in our day to day transactions. With the recent NAR Settlement, agents are upping their game to show their true value and combat the commission pressure our industry is starting to see. If agents are elevating their buyer's experience, LOs will have to keep up for agents to want to share that business. 70% of consumers are willing to pay MORE for convenience and customer service. Rayse is helping agents provide this experience for their customers. Lenders- what are you doing for your agent partners to help? We'd love to hear from mortgage influencers in the space like Greg Sher, Brian Vieaux, Kyle Draper💡, Jake Vermillion, Sue Woodard, Shant Banosian, Raquel Borras🤘🏼, Dave Savage #realestate #mortgage #narsettlement #commissionslawsuits #homeownership
