You don’t agree with Redfin’s fine–or my reporting of the event?

Please explain.

The loaded question is: How many sales will they have to do to break even? $9 milliion won’t go very far with Redfin’s planned expansions. In San Diego, they don’t even have an office listed– and their lone agent has closed one sale in the last few months.

I think they are the big boy.

I hope you will post an update on the appeal… I’m interested to see how this pans out.

LOL!

Redfin clearly alienated the big real estate boys.

You know, generally speaking, violating Rule 190 would be over-looked by people in this business as it just gets the listing more exposure (for both the listing and the agent). But, if you tick off the big boys, they’ll call you out on 190 violation if it is the only thing they can technically get you on. Remember, Al Capone didn’t get busted for being a gangster or for murder charges – it was tax evasion.

Anger the big boys and girls and they’ll get you with whatever they can – including minor violations. I wouldn’t be surprised if this guy gets pulled over by a cop whose wife is a real estate agent and the cop not only gives him a speeding ticket but looks for every other possible violation! 🙂
