Because even if I say so myself, we packed that event with tons of valuable information agents need now. In case you weren’t there, […]

I recently made a bold prediction. And I’m not backing down from it. I said that within three to four years, I estimate 50% of all U.S. real estate transactions will have a 25-42% referral fee attached to it. Why?
