(ABC 6 News) – As the National Association of Realtors agrees on a settlement, a massive shake-up could be in store for the housing market.
The association was accused of conspiring to keep broker fees artificially high.
Now, commission fees could go down by 50%, leading to thousands of dollars in differences for home prices.
If that settlement is approved, the new rules will begin this summer.
