Episode 130: Should the “Listing Agent” get most of the commission.
In this episode we talk through real estate commissions and who should normally be entitled to the lion’s share of it (listing agent or buyers agent). On the heels of the NAR lawsuit, the increased transparency around who is actually paying for the services rendered has forced the real estate industry to take a hard look at this question. Under normal circumstances, an “agent” should be hired and compensated by the party that is using their services. We discuss a reasonable approach to commission splits and the appropriate allocation of commission based on the services, expense, and expertise. A controversial topic that we enjoyed discussing on The Sale Ring podcast.

Episode 127: Tax Deferred Exchange, DST and 721 UPREIT
We are joined in the studio by our good friend Greg Schowe with Asset Preservation Inc., as he takes us through some interesting differences between 1031 Exchanges, Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) and the 721 UPREIT. Q4 of each year is a busy time with investors moving assets into the sale arena and deferring capital gains tax is a big decision for more investors and owners. Using these tax treatments is a huge opportunity for any prudent seller and we gained valuable insight from Greg today. Enjoy the show. ASSET PRESERVATION INC.
