๐ฐ The $418 million settlement announced in March by The National Association of Realtors will lead to a complete overhaul in the way real estate agents get paid, impacting the pricing and concessions in the market.
๐ฐ The traditional payment structure in the real estate industry is changing, which may ultimately hurt buyers as agents may be less motivated to show homes with lower commissions.
๐ The housing market is experiencing a significant drop in prices, particularly in the high-end property segment.
๐ฐ The new policy of not disclosing buyer's commission will ultimately disadvantage the buyer in the real estate market.
๐ Newer agents may leave the industry, leading to a significant decrease in the number of agents available to service the market.
๐ฐ The potential drop in nationwide commissions could lead to a decrease in home prices as sellers adjust to the changing market.
๐ฐ The new rules requiring Buyer Agents to discuss their compensation up front will cause a lot of issues, especially as Banks get tighter on their lending standards.

๐ ๏ธ Home Depot's competitors are facing serious issues, with one even closing all of its stores.
๐ The demand for home renovations and repair surged during the pandemic, leading to a temporary increase in business for Home Improvement retailers.
๐จ Home Depot is not just competing with paint companies like Kelly Moore, but also attracting consumers and contractors with its wide range of products and services.
๐ธ Kelly Moore's closure was blamed on the heavy financial burden of paying off as best claim settlement and the risk of future asbest claims.
๐ The Ninja suggests that the government is lying about inflation, leading people to hold off on home renovations and purchases.
๐ Waiting to do certain renovations around your house can be a smart move until prices come down.
๐ The closure of competitors like lnl floring and kellym paints will cause more unemployment and less competition for companies like Home Depot.
