Welcome!
I think MLS’s opened the door to this sort of conflict by allowing limited service licensees to use their systems to post what are for all intents and purposes “For Sale By Owner” Offerings. These are situations where the Buyer Agent already deals with the seller for showings and feedback. I think it’s weak to step up at this point and attempt to draw the line at presenting offers.This is what they mean when they say “Slippery Slope”. Buyer Agents presenting offers to a seller is the organic extension of the limited service market place. The real issue here is “For Sale By Owner” offerings requiring a licensee to get into the MLS.

I'm usually a big fan of private enterprise providing solutions. In this case I'm not so sure. As I understand it, privatization created this mess. Joe Boylan http://www.SpringsHomes.com
I love the approach. In a time when agents seem to have fewer good choices, this looks like great alternative...For the right agent! Joe Boylan http://www.SpringsHomes.com
