In my interview with Mike Work, Mike told us that he believed in a total restructuring of the current system of Brokering real estate.

 Mike has had a ton of experience as he was one of the first variable commission brokers in the Country, and he along with yours truely helped the flat fee listing popularize across the net.

Well, I found a couple blog posts of late that really is interesting if you are considering a non-traditional real estate model.

Zip Realty

Zip Realty is a survivor. It was one of the first online Realty Shops that has grown over time. Zip offers the rebate model and may be in trouble if you believe the post by Russel Shaw.

From Russel’s post:

Let’s break down the compensation plan of an average zipagent:

• Avg Net Revenue/Transaction $7,400
• Avg zipAgent Commission 50%
• Avg Agent Commission/Transaction $3,700
• Transactions/Agent/Month .60
• Avg Monthly agent income $2,220

While at the Freakonomics blog, steve posts that Redfin ( the Iconic Real Estate 2.0 Net Firm)

“clients who use their discount brokerage firm pay a lower percent of the list price than the typical home buyer in Seattle (99.329% of the listing price with Redfin vs. 100.233% with other agents).  That difference in price is worth more than $4,000 per purchase, on top of the already discounted fees/commission sharing.”

One wonders after the Fat Uncle (Investors), are thru feeding these two pioneers if they will be able to still float.

Ever since my days as a real estate agent, I have not been a fan of the local board. Forgive my prejudice, but I always felt that the “leaders” were agents that were more interested in getting attention than selling real estate.

Perhaps it was when June, the lady who worked the desk was more helpful to a FSBO looking to purchase CAR forms for the sale of his home than helping me. Last I heard she is still working there. She must be 102 years old by now!

I thought how absurd that this jerk was even allowed into what I thought was my “association”.

Robbie over at Rain City rants about his “challenges” with the MLS here.

While Trulia mentions a couple of Brokers that Mike & I reference in the last interview.

It seems these guys are letting FSBOs to post their homes for sale on their site:

Some major real estate brokers such as ZipRealty and Catalist Homes are allowing for-sale-by-owner (FSBO) homeowners to post their home sale on the brokers’ highly trafficked Web sites. Many more brokers would like to do the same – so what’s stopping them? MLS rules of course!

I dug up a couple old press releases that I did for Mike and I when we were partners:

Man, I need to go on diet! that was a long time ago.

Get ready to have your head spin.

Mike Work was my partner when I sold real estate. He is not happy unless he teeters on the edge of the industry. He was a pioneer of flat fee listings locally in Manhattan Beach, California and Nationally.

He is not a maverick however. He is very aware of a brokers fiduciary obligations (his sister was a CAR Attorney). Everything he does is out of his obligation towards his clients. But he pulls down the veil off what is generally accepted as marketing in real estate.

Funny enough, you may find your self agreeing with him more often than not.

Of course, I offer my ideas and find myself countering Mike and agreeing with him at various points in the interview. 

We cover:

• How the Real Estate industry is splintering into new models.
• How most Brokerages do not profit from commissions.
• Do you get $30,000 for less than 40 hours of work?
• The Bastardization of the word SERVICE.
• How the Industry creates & churns low end producers.
• What do you and a 7 Eleven Slurpy have in common?
• How you are helping fsbos to market heir houses without an agent.
• Is there a correlation between the Real Estate & Travel industry?
• Who does the MLS belong to, the Realtors or the Consumer?
• Mike says that you have a fiduciary duty to an open MLS (no forced opt-in), and how I believe paradoxically that will hurt sales rather than helping it.
