Maybe it’s a new marketing trend that’s fresh at first but subsequently played out after too many people copy it. Maybe it’s a new real estate reality TV show that spawns scores of new agent copycats.
From legal trends to design trends to media trends, we wondered: What real estate trend should never make a comeback? Are you sick of social media featuring Lambos instead of houses? Tired of copycat lawsuits and big huge lawyer fees? Will you just give up the ghost if you have to tour one more home with all-gray interiors? Here are your responses:

- Recipe cards!
- NAR
- Gold hardware and fixtures.
- Handwritten contractual documents. If you don’t know how to use the technology, then learn!
- Dual Agency
