Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered Agent Series 31: "Coming Soons" Could Lead to DOJ Intervention
Are "coming soon" listings putting the real estate industry at risk?
In this episode, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Art Carter, CEO of CRMLS, and Ed Zorn, VP and General Counsel, to unpack one of the most heated and misunderstood topics in real estate right now.
From "coming soon" listings to private listings, MLS rules, and seller choice, this conversation breaks down what's actually happening behind the scenes and why it matters more than most agents realize.
They also explore the growing concern that current industry trends could trigger Department of Justice scrutiny and what that could mean for agents, brokerages, and the future of cooperation.
If you think this is just another industry debate, think again.
