A new question has emerged to protect our commission. 2 agents in my office were working with customers, each asked them if they were working with any other Realtors. Each agent worked with them over several weeks and both ended up at the same high end rental complex that cooperated with Realtors. Each agent worked several days to complete all paperwork and did the walk-thru's. Each agent did not get paid. Why you ask? because the new question to ask(or I should say the additional question to ask) is "Have you register on any website to search for properties?" Both of the customers had been searching the web months before wisely deciding to work with a Realtor. Both of the customer's names showed up on the rental complex's database and they do not have to pay us. So beware and add another question when working with customers.
