According to the sellers, this product forces them to pay higher commissions to entice buyers&#8217; brokers.<\/p>\n<p>According to NAR spokesman Mantill Williams, this exercise&#8221; creates a larger pool of buyers for sellers by having so few buyer brokers participating in that local market.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A RE \/ MAX spokesman stated that the business did not comment on any ongoing legal disputes.
