We don’t need to worry about what we write or referring a small company’s products.

Having to worry about “did I say this correctly” will only make the blogs become dry and less personal. At that point we might as well turn in our writing credentials and just pay another monthly fee to someone who can do it for us and do it the “right” way.

Did you see how the prez of NAR is enroute DC to lobby changes to the HVCC guidlines?

This certainly has the potential to steam roll into something it was not intended to do – much like other government regulations and their unintended consequences.

What happens when an agent blogs about sponsoring a softball team or school outing? The intent is to be compensated through referral business, but how is that measured? I suspect we’re on the eve of the next blog feces tempest with this one Missy – much in the MIBOR/NAR/Paula Henry vein. This one has much broader implications of course.

Thanks for continuing to keep your eyes focused on the horizon and making sure the rest of us get in the loop very quickly.

Perhaps, the Fed should put their own house in order by requiring politicians to disclose that when they recommend a certain program or bill or project, that they’re doing so based on lobbyists’ donations.

Now my real question is, when I blog about a new listing, will I have to disclose that if I get the home sold, I’ll earn a certain fee when that happens? I’ll benefit financially from the recommendation I’m making on the home. Is that really any different than recommending a certain restaurant and receiving a free meal?
