The general lack of transparency is hurting the "traditional" real estate industry. It has allowed Zillow, Trulia and other real estate portals to position themselves as the friendly places where home buyers and sellers can get help. This is the job the local MLS and Realtor(R) organization should be doing. Thanks, Robert.

Apparently, logic doesn't enter into the real estate jargon. Thanks for an exceptiionally inciteful commentary. Now, how do you (the industry) make change in the misuse of terminology. It's more than semantics. Words and names mean something. Apparently folks in the real estate industry have never examined how these terms are interpreted by the client. Or, is the confusion on purpose? Keep up the good work on challenging perceptions. This makes entirely too much sense.
