Real Estate Commissions Are Already Coming Down Fast

Real Estate Commissions Are Already Coming Down Fast

Author: Sam Dogen: Financial Samurai founder, personal finance blogger April 4, 2024 Duration: 18:22

Every residential real estate investor and homeowner is richer after the National Association Of Realtors settled its price fixing lawsuit.

I know many real estate agents, realtors, and brokerages are upset with the ruling. However, the decision was decided quickly by a jury of our peers. The money that would have went into the real estate industry's pockets are now going back into the homeowners' and investors' pockets.

Recommendations

Check out Fundrise, my favorite private real estate platform with over $3.3 billion under management for 500,000+ investors. With mortgage rates coming down and the stock market strong, the demand for real estate is building. 

Fundrise predominantly invests in residential and industrial real estate in the Sunbelt region, where valuations are lower and yields are higher. I believe there is a multi-decade demographic shift towards lower-cost areas of the country thanks to technology. 

Financial Samurai is an investor in Fundrise funds and Fundrise is a long-time sponsor of Financial Samurai.
