Hey Mortgage Brokers,
Heads up! The recent NAR settlement will impact how buyer agents get paid, and that could have some downstream effects for us. Here's the lowdown:
- Negotiation Takes Center Stage: Buyer agent commissions won't be pre-listed on the MLS anymore. This means you might see more clients approaching you who need help navigating commission discussions with buyers and sellers.
- Communication is Key: Transparency about your fees and the loan process will be even more important for building trust with clients in this new environment.
- Potential for Increased Demand: With a focus on negotiation, buyers may value brokers who can offer a seamless and transparent loan origination experience.
Thinking of Expanding Your Reach?
The NAR settlement might make becoming a dual-licensed loan originator (MLO) more attractive for some brokers, creating a one-stop shop for clients. Remember: Check your state's regulations for dual licensing.
