Address: 290 Iroquois, Boulder, co. The geniuses as Cyberhomes have it listed for a full $100-$150K higher than the market rate. What good id a rating company when it gets the sqft. wrong. Actual is 2070. Cyberhomes lists it at 3050! How close is that?! Then the brilliant experts provide no way to get it corrected? Arrogant or unintelligent?

Not all but most saw the end of the tunnel (Technology) and didn't adapt 2. Did the NAR and their "realtors" really think this monopoly would be forever? I am no history major but monopolies hence Microsoft get broken up all the time. 3. If the NAR and their "realtors" do not come to terms with the (DOJ) Department of Justice the internet and discount brokers will put them out of a home. 4. The MLS may have started out as a good idea but the internet is the way to reach many more consumers or potential home buyers and sellers. A public MLS system needs to be in place. Agents should be worried, people are smarter than ever. I for one don't have a realtors license however I know exactly how to go about buying and selling a home. I have a very good lawyer as well. The need for an agent has declined rapidly. It's sad I know more than some agents do and I work in the IT industry.

Exactly how this is going to play out remains to be seen, however, I think this is going to be a major step forward for REALTOR.com and a very useful for Joe Homeowner. The question in my mind is how does it benefit the agent directly? I heard through the grapevine that Move.com’s agreement is coming to an end with them.
