The National Association of Realtors (NAR) has held a monopoly over the real estate industry for a hundred years. Their grip on the industry is unmatched. For example, only about 15% of all doctors are members of the American Medical Association. About 17% of all lawyers are members of the American Bar Association. In real estate, 99% of agents and brokers are members of the NAR. The recent controversies they have been embroiled in has created an opportunity for an association to compete with them.  Founders Jason Haber and Mauricio Umansky propose the creation of the "American Real Estate Association," which aims to foster collaboration, innovation, and excellence among real estate agents, providing an alternative to the NAR.  According to these founders, their key areas of focus will include strengthening agent skills, enhancing investor-friendly education, improving ethics, and promoting diversity and inclusion in decision-making.

  If the Covid years have taught us anything, it's that face to face meetings are far better than meeting on Zoom.  In a Zoom meeting, because of the slight delay between sending and receiving, there’s always this kind of forced good manners where you have to wait for someone to come to a complete end of their statement. Someone finishes their sentences, and then there’s a long pause, and then someone starts to speak again. It doesn’t have the rhythm and dynamism of normal conversation, where people can talk over each other a little bit, react instantly to what is being said, and pick up on more non-verbal cues. In a Zoom meeting, it doesn’t feel like a real conversation; it feels like people are making prepared statements. Jonathan Levav, the King Philanthropies Professor of Marketing at Stanford Graduate School of Business, studied and attempted to quantify the advantages and disadvantages to Zoom communication and found, as one might expect, that video conferencing is no substit
