About this episode

Earlier this week, the National Association of Realtors announced a settlement agreement to the class action lawsuit that was widely publicized late last year. On today's show we are talking about the implications of the settlement. Sadly, the likely result is that it will harm the very people the lawsuit was designed to help.

Commercial real estate puts the burden of risk on the buyer and this is understood.
