Your Future. Our Focus.

Message from your 2023 GTR President Jay Quigley

A little over seven years ago, I joined this wonderful REALTOR® community as a freshly minted licensee. I immediately learned in orientation from one of the finest instructors in Florida, Ann Thompson, that the “R” word was not pronounced “Reel-ah-tore” or “Reel-lit-tore”…but “Realtore.”

Through the faith and trust of the members of Greater Tampa REALTORS®, I’m truly humbled to be your 2023 President.

How did this happen? Like many leaders before me, it began when I made a conscious decision to excel in the real estate profession and the desire to contribute to something larger than myself. I began serving here at GTR on various committees with my all-time favorites being professional development and technology.

It is on committees and task forces where the real work is done. It is where friendships begin. It is also where future leaders are often “found”.

Leaders watched & listened. Eventually, I was encouraged to run for a position on the Board of Directors. That brings us to today.

Maybe you’ve seen it already - Your Future. Our Focus.

This is not a mere public announcement or tagline. It will be a reminder of our purpose in not only 2023, but beyond. It reminds us that, as an Association, our priority is to serve our members well and in doing so, we help position them for success. This can only be done by listening to and partnering with our members…providing them the best possible tools, resources and support.

In conjunction with our national and state associations, we will continue to educate and promote the importance of advocacy, especially when leveraged with the strength of the REALTORS® Party Political Action Committee (RPAC), as well as professionalism.

We must listen and partner with our brokers to determine what GTR can do to help them succeed. We’ve established a Broker Engagement task force whose sole purpose is to hear first-hand how GTR can better serve our brokers…the small ones, the mid-sized ones and of course, our large brokers. So, you brokers out there - if you are asked to participate in an interview or focus group, I hope that you’ll accept the opportunity to provide your valuable input so we can focus on our future.

We must listen to our members, both new licensees and those who’ve successfully made this a profession/career that support themselves and their families.

With technological advances, location is no longer a limitation when it comes to collaboration, opportunity & growth. In just the past two years, we’ve seen extraordinary changes in our world. Virtual/hybrid meetings, on-demand education, and a workforce that can effectively work remotely are just some of the changes to which we must adapt.

As we navigate deeper into this post-pandemic world, some will reminisce about the “old days”- that period prior to COVID-19.

Today is our new normal and I believe there’s a lot for us to be excited about.

One of my favorite quotes from Irish Playwright, George Bernard Shaw is: “Those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.”

Let us challenge our old thoughts and beliefs. We must eliminate obstacles and a long-standing systemic culture that is hesitant or resistant to change. One where individual agendas are more important than unity and where self interest and self preservation dominate.

Let us challenge the “norm” and think outside the box. Sometimes it’s not about fixing something that is broken but unifying our purpose and goals to create something even better.

Let us embrace change & explore opportunities that allow us to better serve our members and our community.

Let us continue working hard, with open minds, to bring unity as we move forward.

This year is all about focusing on the future of you, our members and this great profession.

CODE OF ETHICS

Mass Media Solicitation Not a Violation of the Code

Case #16-3

REALTOR® A, a residential broker, worked in a market area that included an attractive suburb of a large city. At the time REALTOR® A launched a new advertising program, there were a number of houses for sale in the neighborhood listed exclusively with other REALTORS®, each having the respective listing broker’s sign on its front lawn.

Working with his advertising agency, REALTOR® A developed a special e-mail solicitation describing the service of his offices. He employed a commercial e-mail distribution service to purchase the e-mails of every homeowner in REALTOR® A’s market area.

The e-mail distribution service sent REALTOR® A’s e-mail solicitation to all the homeowners in his market area, including houses that had other REALTORS®’ signs in the front yard. Several of the REALTORS® whose clients received REALTOR® A’s e-mails filed complaints with the Association against REALTOR® A. The Grievance Committee considered the complaints and referred them to the Professional Standards Administrator to schedule a hearing by a Hearing Panel of the Professional Standards Committee at which time all of the complaints would be considered. The complaints charged REALTOR® A with unethical conduct in failing to respect the exclusive agency of other REALTORS®.

At the hearing, REALTOR® A defended his action by saying that the distribution of his e-mail solicitation

was widespread in nature; that it had been carried out by a commercial distribution service; and that it was of the same nature as television or social media advertising that might come to the attention of some clients having exclusive listing contracts with other REALTORS®.

The Hearing Panel’s decision noted that REALTOR® A, in designing his advertising campaign, did not direct his e-mail to property owners whose identity had come to REALTOR® A’s attention through information disclosed by other REALTORS® consistent with their ethical obligation to cooperate with other brokers under Article 3 of the Code of Ethics; e.g., through a “for sale” sign or through information disseminated through a Multiple Listing Service. Rather, REALTOR® A’s advertising campaign was directed in an indiscriminate manner to all property owners in a given geographical area. Furthermore, the medium REALTOR® A chose for his advertising campaign was an e-mail, which property owners could read or delete as they saw fit. The panel determined that this form of communication does not harass a property owner, as would telephone calls or direct personal contacts. The Hearing Panel, therefore, held that REALTOR® A’s advertising campaign did not violate Article 16 of the Code of Ethics.

Q: May a Florida licensed real estate broker pay an out-of-state licensee a referral fee?

A: Yes. Section 475.25(1)(h), Florida Statutes, allows a Florida licensed real estate broker to share compensation with a foreign licensee if the foreign licensee does not violate Florida law. The foreign licensee would not be permitted to come to Florida physically and engage in real estate activity as defined by Section 475.01(1)(a), Florida Statutes. Before paying the referral fee, the Florida licensed broker should verify that the foreign licensee is licensed to practice real estate in his or her state or foreign jurisdiction as the Florida licensee may need to pay the fee to the foreign licensee’s broker

Q: If a broker’s license was inactive when the broker procured a listing, is the listing contract valid?

A: No. Section 475.41, Florida Statutes, provides, “No contract for a commission or compensation for any act or service enumerated in Section 475.01(3), is valid unless the broker or sales associate has complied with this chapter in regard to issuance and renewal of the license at the time the act or service was performed.”

YPNDEN

Welcome to the New Year! 2023! A time when we all get to wipe the slate clean, breathe new life into our well-intended goals and clear the dust off any of last year’s unfinished resolutions. That’s the beauty of ringing in the New Year – it allows us to reflect on the previous year and make a choice; either we’re pleased with the direction we are headed and KEEP ON or we learn from our ways and CHANGE COURSE. As your new YPN Ambassadors, we want to challenge young professionals this year to just start where you are. Don’t call it a new year’s resolution or even a new start. If you have been a professional for more than one day, then just start today! Every day is a new day to evaluate what didn’t work and do less of it. Look at what worked and do more of it. Here are a few best practices that young professionals in real estate can employ:

Brittany’s Tips:

• Work Smarter, Not Harder – It’s easy to get carried away in the world of real estate and spend countless hours in front of the screen. Find ways to work more effectively so you’re utilizing your time wisely leaving more time to spend with your loved ones and doing what you love to do. It’s all about balance!

• What Works For One, May Not Work For Another

– Take every piece of advice you receive with a grain of salt. (Yes, even THIS!) No single method will always work equally as well for every single agent. That’s why there are different business models, CRM databases, website hosts, etc. Do your due diligence and weigh the options. Do what works best FOR YOU!

• Just Because Everyone’s Doing It, Doesn’t Make It Right – Over time, rules & regulations change, laws and restrictions change. That’s why it’s important to always stay up to date with the most recent news and revisions. With the ever-evolving world of real estate, keep in mind that just because you’re used to seeing everyone operate a certain way, does not necessarily make it the correct way of doing it. Trust your instincts and do your own research to ensure that you’re conducting yourself accordingly.

• Communication Is Key – Real estate is a relationship-building industry. We rely on those relationships with fellow agents, brokers, vendors, clients, etc. The most crucial thing to keep in mind

is how important that communication between parties is. Have a question? Ask! Unsure about a specific detail? Ask! It’s always best to try finding out the answer rather than be left in the dark, for everyone’s sake. What’s more, a phone call is best for conversation and emails are best for confirmation.

• Know Your Contract and Forms Inside Out – The best thing you can do for yourself, your brokerage, and your client is to be well-versed when it comes to any real estate forms you need in a transaction. Make it a habit to read your contract once a week and I promise you, you’ll learn something new from it every single time. Read through all the disclosures, addenda, etc. listed in Florida REALTORS®, MLS and your brokerage. This will help you to be a more confident and competent agent!

• Paper Trail – While your office most likely requires you to keep a thorough file on everything, it’s best practice to go above and beyond what the minimum requirements are. Keep anything and everything pertaining to a transaction on the off chance it’s ever needed. It’s better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it!

• Real Estate Ebbs and Flows – As we all know, real estate can be a full-on roller coaster ride! Based on market conditions, your workload, and other variables, there are always going to be periods when business is booming and those in-between times. Word to the wise – be prepared for those slower periods. Learn to budget and save in anticipation of those downtimes rather than be caught off guard!

We are SO grateful to be kicking off the new year as your YPN Ambassadors! We cannot wait to see what success and blessings 2023 brings to all of you. This year we are excited about inspiring young professionals to achieve their goals. With your help, we can build each other up through networking, education, and community engagement. Get involved with YPN and let’s make a difference in the Tampa Bay area! Check back next magazine for Marcus' tips. Don’t forget to join us at our many upcoming events planned throughout the year either – get all the details by following us on our social media. See you soon!

Emerging Home Trends for 2023

What to Expect from the Housing Market this Year

Navigating the 2023 market will require working diligently with your team and prospective clients. With new tech introduced in the everchanging market, many sellers may see the allure of saving on REALTOR® fees when selling with an iBuyer, however, better offers and increased ease will come with working alongside a traditional agent. REALTORS® will continue to be the experts that sellers and homebuyers need. To keep buyers and sellers coming back, agents must stay up to date with the trends to continue working with determination.

As we saw in the last few quarters of 2022, beyond the setbacks of supply chain issues with homebuilders, interest rates skyrocketed to a 40-year high, which greatly stalled market activity. These rates are now

being deemed the new standard, which is expected to either flatten or dip. We began this year with nearly 6.5% national mortgage rate. This upward trend is anticipated to last at least throughout the first two quarters of 2023. If the Feds do decrease this number closer to 5%, agents can anticipate a modest boom in which the low rates will encourage housing demand, thus drastically improving home sales.

According to NAR Chief Economist Lawrence, “Housing inventory is expected to remain tight in 2023, with housing starts below historical averages and fewer homeowners willing to sell.” The country's average housing supply remains low, as buyers who purchased homes in some recent years with exceptionally low mortgage rates are remaining where they are.

Zellige Tile Bold Colors Accent Walls Modernist Curves

HOME TRENDS

Florida home values rose more in 2022 than in any other state, according to data analyzed from Zillow.

This year, REALTORS® can also expect to see lengthier “days on market”. It is anticipated that buyers will no longer struggle with various other offers, providing additional time and options. Agents may see additional properties taken off the market and listed for rent in its place for more affordable prices as well.

A reoccuring trend we saw during the pandemicera linking affordability challenges to homebuying is derived from higher rates, which indicates more buyers will purchase homes with support of friends and family versus on their own. Also, more homeowners will develop into first-time landlords as they hold onto investment properties formerly acquired with track record low mortgage rates.

Additionally, according to Taylor Marr, deputy chief economist at Redfin, “High homeowner equity and a resilient job market will stave off a wave of foreclosures.” Even though home purchases continue to be too expensive for many buyers due to swift rates increases since 2022 and the major reason for pull back during sales, prices still remain greater in comparison to prepandemic costs.

While the housing market has been operating at a chaotic tempo over the last two years, mild recovery is expected to take place in 2023. Although the national inflation’s rate is slowing, it’s possible that price growth will wane into this year, fluctuating significantly around the country and also dependent on the region.

Make your voice heard in Tallahassee!

It is that time of year when REALTORS® from around Florida are preparing to travel to the state capitol to advocate for your profession and Florida property owners. This event, Great American REALTOR® Days (GARD), is held annually to provide our members the opportunity to meet with lawmakers on pending legislation and discuss important issues impacting Florida’s real estate industry. The 2023 Great American REALTOR® Days is set for March 29 - 31.

REALTORS® are there to make sure our elected leaders have the right information before voting on legislation that could hurt your bottom line, threaten the growth of your business or make it harder for Floridians to buy their dream homes or sell their properties.

• Is something in a real estate transaction complicating the process unnecessarily?

• Are escalating insurance premiums driving away buyers?

• Does the water quality in your area impact your sales?

These are just a few examples of the issues lawmakers might consider each year during the annual legislative session. Our advocacy has seen the passage of landmark legislation over the years, and REALTORS® across Florida continue to advise the legislature on how proposed legislation will affect property owners.

The 2023 legislative session will last 60 days, during which time many different bills will be discussed, debated and voted on. REALTORS® who participated in GARD have been instrumental in legislation that:

• Massively cuts the state sales tax on commercial leases.

• Provides important insurance reforms to help keep premiums affordable.

• Allocates significant funding for improved water quality throughout the state.

• Caps certain fees charged by community associations.

• Protects homeowners from excessive flood insurance increases.

• Authorizes online/remote notaries for more streamlined transactions.

• Provides new tools for closing open/expired permits.

• And much, much more.

AFFILIATE CORNER

Why a Title Company matters

In a real estate transaction there’s buyers and sellers, real estate agents and mortgage lenders. All these separate parties come together for one common cause of transferring ownership of a home from seller to buyer. It’s an emotional experience and signifies a new chapter in many lives. The one piece of the puzzle that can oftentimes get overlooked in the mix is the title company. Not just a place to sign papers, the title company is THE party who confirms rightful ownership, prepares the transfer deed and ensures that everything is done completely, timely, lawfully and correctly. The title company wields a lot of power and can cause BIG problems if they aren’t best in class. Greater Tampa REALTORS® is honored to be home to a myriad of awesome title companies. You can find our title Affiliate Partners by hovering over the Affiliates tab on our website and clicking “Find an Affiliate”. From there, you can change the “Member Type” to Affiliate and filter the category to “title”.

Before choosing a title company vet them and their reviews for these qualities. Not choosing wisely could cost your clients time, money, hassle and possibly heartache. Here are the top 5 reasons why a title company truly matters.

Responsiveness – A title company should answer the phone and be available to answer your questions. A great title company will keep all parties informed and aware of any changes. Should a problem arise, quick awareness allows the transaction to continue without unnecessary delays.

Problem Solvers – Some deals are tricky or can throw lesser title companies for a loop. Not every transaction can be straight forward with no challenges. A great title company doesn’t shy away from the challenges. A great

title company with experienced title professionals will see your challenge and raise you a solution.

Experience - A team of experts is what you need to close a transaction smoothly. Inexperience and understaffing can lead to sloppy mistakes. Title can be intricate and requires a keen attention to detail. When vetting a title company, ask how long they have been in business and who will be handling your file.

Locally-owned and operated – Locally owned small businesses have a pulse on the local market. When you work with small businesses, you get the care that personal relationships offer.

Appreciative – A great title appreciates every client, every deal and every detail. It’s not about the next deal. It’s about doing everything necessary for this client to be overjoyed with his or her closing experience.

When you choose a title company make sure to choose a title company that cares and communicates. There’s nothing worse than finally getting to closing and ending on a sour note because the title company doesn’t handle the transaction with the care and concern that this is a huge milestone for your clients.
