Where does the consumer fit into the new emerging real estate economy? We believe the consumer has control of the economic joystick and will dictate the brkerage models of tomorrow.

The consumer, joystick in hand, now drives the economic train. Armed with access to property information, multiple ancillary support services, online mortage and title services, the consumer has more power over the transaction than the broker and agent combined.
