On Facebook we all help each other out with things others may need. There’s been tons of businesses giving out free food and needs to those in need. FEMA set up locations to hand out free resources.

    playing the violin while Ben was complaining was hilarious. Props to the editor lol. Vinson you should probably just get some rattle cans and spray paint the patio furniture. That stuff ain't coming out. Honestly since I was a kid the hurricanes come every year during "hurricane season" which is basically august through october, and every year they do a ton of damage and tear everything up, and EVERY YEAR people keep rebuilding the same crappy shacks out of plywood. Honestly sick of it. The amount of money spent in repairing damage every year could be invested in proofing the state and not having these problems. I think I have an idea for a company to hurricane proof all these things. I bet I could get state subsidy too. For instance brand new pool equipment should not be rusting and shorting out. They need to bring in fuel barges instead of trucks too, to the coastal areas. Houses should not be built like square cabins, you need thick concrete ROUNDED structures that can completely seal the lower levels to block out all water.

    Hey Ben!
    Are you going to offer the buyers agent any compensation when you list your property? Since the NAR lawsuit, we don’t have to offer any commission as listing agents, and I’m seeing the same amount of clients who offer cooperating brokerage compensation. I would be interested to know if the trend has stayed the same in properties with valuations of of 10m+

    • @viralsheddingzombie5324
      @viralsheddingzombie5324 3 години тому

      The NAR lawsuit basically did two things:
      1. Listing brokers cannot put the coop commission in the MLS, which simply means the listing broker and buyer's broker will have an agreement outside the MLS.
      2. IF IF IF the buyer is represented separately by his own broker, there must have a buyer's broker agreement.
      The buyer is still free to deal directly with the listing broker if the listing broker agrees to represent the buyer as well as the seller (dual agency). This is not rocket science.

    Living anywhere in Florida is like playing Russian Roulette everyday with your life and your home. What an absolute mess, and NO insurance??? Average person is totally hosed. Never FL!!!’
