A friend alerted me to this article on TechCrunch today where the folks at TC submitted for review “data” supplied by Redfin that touts their benefits over working with a traditional agent or REALTOR. My response at first to my friend’s email was, “what exactly are you trying to say?” Especially since his only line of text besides the link to the article was, “This can’t be good news.”
After my initial response wore off I was able to really think about the article and I replied to my friend, who then prodded me to put my comments onto the post. I’ve done this now and it will be interesting to read what any replies to it might be. Michael has some interesting commentary too regarding the math of it all and constitutes a good study. I’ll ask him to post those here.
