Do I Need a Realtor to Buy a House? (The 2026 Truth about Commissions)

Описание: In 2026, the honest answer is: To find a house? No.

You have Zillow in your pocket, AI drafting contracts, and drones showing you the neighborhood. The "Search" phase of real estate is officially free. If your agent’s value is "finding you the right home," they are a relic of the past. 📉

In this episode of Unlocking Florida Real Estate, Sue Borrelli breaks down why you don't need a "Door-Opener," but you absolutely need a Strategist. Between the NAR settlement and the Florida insurance collapse, the role of the agent has shifted from "Tour Guide" to "Equity Guardian." 🛡️📈

We are performing a Forensic Audit on:
• The Search Illusion: Why Zillow is a hobby, but acquisition is a math problem.
• The NAR Settlement: What you are actually paying for in 2026.
• The Insurance Gatekeeper: Finding the "No" before you spend $1,000 on inspections.
• ROI Case Study: How a strategist saves you $500/month on your mortgage vs. a standard agent.
If you’re looking for a house, you’re a dreamer. If you’re looking for a strategy, you’re a winner.
