Recent headlines have highlighted the lawsuit involving the National Association of REALTORS\u00ae (NAR) and its proposed settlement. If you\u2019re considering a career in real estate, you might be curious about how these developments could affect your future success in the industry. On October 31, 2023, a federal jury in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri found the NAR and certain brokerages liable for artificially inflating buyer agent commission fees. In March 2024, NAR and plaintiffs reached a proposed settlement to resolve claims regarding broker commissions on behalf of home sellers. Pending court approval, this settlement is scheduled to take effect on July 1, 2024. Besides increasing transparency around commissions and fees, the settlement might introduce changes that offer consumers more options and foster a more equitable real estate market.

NAR Lawsuit: Burnett v. NAR, et al. Verdict<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The lawsuit focused on the practice where seller agents advertise specific commissions to buyer agents via Multiple Listing Services (MLS). Critics argue this practice incentivizes buyer agents to favor properties with higher commissions.
In response, NAR stated, \u201cNAR does not set commissions, which have been negotiable long before this settlement and will remain negotiable between brokers and their clients.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\nProposed Settlement of the NAR Lawsuit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Under the proposed terms, REALTOR\u00ae members serving as buyer agents will need to enter into written agreements with buyers before offering services such as property showings or submitting offers. Compensation for buyer agents will be clearly defined in these agreements, possibly based on a percentage of the sale or a fixed rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\nImpact of the Proposed NAR Lawsuit Settlement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Despite these developments, one constant requirement for aspiring agents is obtaining a state-specific real estate license.
