I think as usually the public is being misled by some of the headlines. Commissions have always been negotiable. It may get a bit messy but I’m not too concerned. For buyers agents, there are already 18 other states that have always required buyers agreements. This will be the norm for all buyers agent to get a guarantee on getting paid. Not sure how this would benefit the buyer at all.. Just the opposite.

The recent verdict from NAR on the given market environment in the real estate sector will greatly impact the real estate agents regarding buying and selling, buyers’ agents in particular. This is how this ruling is likely to impact their earnings and the real estate market as a whole:
Changes in the Commission Rate and its Structure.
Disclose Commissions Profitably: The commission rates that the ruling orders must be revealed and noted. Buyer’s agents will have their commission rate disclosed and may often find buyers unwilling to pay for their services.
Not Unheard of: This market buyer will likely feel pressure on agents’ seller’s rates from a low buyer’s commission to a possible low seller’s commission.
Consequence on as the BBuyer’sagent.
Negotiation Tactics: Finding buyer agents will be challenging in the future. They will need to receive appeal lessons, which will, in turn, broaden the appeal of market buyers. Some buyers will undermine directly paying or processing appeal fees, leading to target barriers.
Service Last: Commissions allow agents to receive payment for various services, and there is no need to provide too many non-connected services. However, the focus will likely change to delivering great services, high geographical service, or all means.
Market Competition Increasing: Alterations in commission structures would increase competition among agents for the potential client, the buyer. Client loyalty may be harder to achieve as agents must improve their marketing and prove themselves.
Rise of Discount Brokerages: This ruling may cause an influx of discounted brokerages that charge lower commission rates, forcing conventional agents to change their mode of operations.
Consumer Behavior Buyer Awareness: As the commission structure becomes more illuminated, buyers may slowly wonder about the importance of an agent. This may also alter their relationship with agents because there will be less interaction with the very principles that work with the buyers.
Direct Negotiations: Perhaps some buyers will buy directly from the seller without their agent, which could affect the earnings of buyers’ agents.
Legal and Regulatory Considerations.
Potential for Legal Challenges: This ruling may create more opportunities for other parties to make legal contentions regarding certain commission practices, especially for anti-trust commission laws, which may affect real estate project transactions.
The NAR ruling will probably change real estate practices regarding agentry, specifically how buyers agents are paid. Therefore, agents should possibly change their approaches, concentrate on creating value, and keep up with the evolving trends of consumer preferences and market norms to be competitive and profitable.
