Culling The Herd IV


With this heat even the cows are melting!

News out of Saint John NB is that the 4th largest brokerage in town closed it's doors this week. 50 agents left to scramble and find themselves a place to hang their Porsche keys.

Interesting comment from a researcher at UNB.
"The traditional real estate business model is under pressure," said Dan Doiron, whose research interests at the University of New Brunswick include industry-wide innovation patterns.

Doiron said the Internet is creating avenues for a person to advertise and sell their home cheaper online, forcing real estate agents to add value any way they can.

"A friend of mine just sold his house over Twitter," he said.

More and more people are realizing that giving away $15,000, when they could simply pay themselves, just doesn't make sense.

If you are a realtor and wondering how you can avoid the cull, maybe this cow abduction video can assist you.
