"The editors did their homework. The pace of change in our business is a constant challenge. Even if you don't want to lead the charge in industry change, brokers would do well to study the innovative concepts (such as the employee-agent model) illustrated here. The section on operations is particularly useful for brokers of a multi-office/multi-region operation."

"The editors of Realtor® Magazine do a fantastic job of keeping Realtors® on top of all real estate concerns. No issue is more timely or essential to building good business than brokerage practices."
