Redfin. Good luck to you. You don't have anything to offer other than a flash in the pan sales pitch. You cannot replace an experienced Realtor with your smoke and mirrors approach to buyng a home or selling a home. Everybody gets lucky once in a while and I know when somebody does, you will use that for a year, trying to convince everyone that they don't need an agent. Here's what you don't have. An agent that works their neighboorhood they grew up in that knows the area like the back of their hand, an agent that knows this is not a business that you can get rich in, an agent that grew up in the community, an agent that cares about thier clients, and beleive it or not, most do. An agent that can tell you very specific things about a buyers targeted area, an agent that knows how to find the best possible financing options etc etc etc . Redfin, you will never replace an agent that looks out for the best interests of their clients that was referred to them. You are just another Interent fly by night, hope it happens company that will fail. Trust me, you cannot replace a live person that has reasoning, logic and feelings. Find another get rich quick method. You are will waste an enormous amount of money trying to make this happen and it won;t.

I often work with real estate agents and most are friendly and give good quality service. They also spend their own money on advertising while doing many other services for free until the property sells. Additionally, in my market area, there are many sales (probably more than half) where the commission is less than 6%. The commission is always negotiable. In fact, the purchase contract in California states that the agent's commission is negotiable. Lastly, MLS is not run or governed by NAR.

Not all Realtors are "stuck - up humans"....Some of us actually care and don't lie or manipulate. I agree that Redfin has a good idea, they just didn't think and they didn't take the time to develop it correctly and legally. As for commissions, if that is a standard, why do it for less? If your boss thought you did not work as hard as you should have this week, then he shouldn't have to pay you your regular salary? You would take half? It's may gas, my ad $ and time I'm spending til it sells!

Redfin must have a very expensive PR firm: 60 Minutes exposure, plus a full, front-page article in last Sunday's San Diego Union-Tribune. Yet, the "agent" for Redin appearing in the San Diego Union Tribune Sunday Real Estate section article is NOT EVEN LICENSED AS AN AGENT OR BROKER WITH REDFIN, a minor detail the San Diego Union Tribune writer declined to research. How is it that, Redfin, a Washington state firm, can advertise in California with a broker not even licensed with Redfin?

Leave it to Realtor`s Egotistic, unethical, all they care about is there 6% commission. You want more on this subject, Just ask. I work with realtors every day. Very rude stuck-up humans. I think there humans.
