Industry Relations Podcast: Opendoor Exclusives and Why MLS Providers Should Lean Toward YES

On this episode, Rob and Greg discuss Opendoor and the “Game of Homes” – should you be able to sell and buy a home as easily as you can sell and buy things on other websites like Amazon? Opendoor’s new approach could cause some waves in the industry as they appear to be removing certain hurdles that for years have impeded the home buying and selling process. Does the MLS industry need to change, and could Opendoor be the catalyst for that change? Rob and Greg break it all down in this heated discussion!

Industry Relations Podcast: The FTC, Stock Market, and Blood in the Streets!

How fair is the American economy and who decides what constitutes “fair”?
