The Consumer Federation of America just proposed a new set of criteria for evaluating seller contract forms. Here's the problem it aims to address: half the states we work in haven't given us new paperwork, and the other half have given us ambiguous, confusing paperwork. With the new offer rules surrounding the NAR settlement about to take effect, there's a lot of misunderstanding (and misinformation) surrounding what you can and can't do regarding contracts and offers. In this vitally important episode of the Tom Ferry Show, I'm talking with one Leo Pareja, the new CEO of eXp Realty, who helped to create the proposed new contract criteria, on what it means and how to understand all the changes taking place. He'll help you cut through the misinformation and get a full grasp on how to conduct business in the new world of real estate. The new commission rule changes DO affect you, and Leo and I can help you understand how to navigate them, so watch or listen now.

Becoming a great listing agent doesn't happen overnight for anyone, but without the right principles and knowledge, it could never happen at all.
