tom, i would be cautious with this one...this company was formed by major players within or closely associated with the national realty association...they own a huge % of this mkt as a result...their goal is to ensure their livelihood(ie-7% commission)...although capturing the majoirty of this mkt. is good for the stockholders, people are starting to realize now what they are doing and this could have legal implications as stated by yesterdays WSJ...it would be analogous to the auto dealerships owning all the online auto brokerages such as autobytel, autoweb and etc and artificially keeping the prices up....it goes against the "spirit" of the internet...well, jmho. mact
