??Did You Know??? There have been some major changes in real estate practices as a result of the 2024 NAR settlement! ?? While the NAR settlement occurred in California, it has already caused changes to the real estate industry in every state, including South Carolina. These changes require significant updates to various real estate agreements and forms. Here’s an overview of what you need to know: Brokers must now enter into written agreements with potential buyers before they can tour a home. Brokers are required to disclose their compensation to both buyers and sellers. It must be conspicuously disclosed in agreements with both buyers and sellers that Broker commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable! Offers of compensation are now prohibited from being listed on an MLS. However, Listing Brokers may advertise the seller’s compensation offers through other channels, provided they have first received written approval from the seller. ??Call or email today to talk to our real estate attorney, Sydney Seidenberg, about updating your real estate agreements!

??Did You Know??? Owning property and businesses through a Limited Liability Company (LLC) offers several advantages: Liability Protection: An LLC separates personal and business assets, protecting personal assets (such as a home or savings) from lawsuits or debts tied to the property or business. Tax Flexibility: LLCs provide flexibility in taxation, allowing owners to choose how they are taxed. This can lead to potential tax savings. Estate Planning: Transferring ownership of an LLC is often easier than transferring individual ownership, simplifying estate planning and inheritance processes. Professionalism and Credibility: Operating under an LLC can boost credibility with clients, lenders, and partners, as it signals a more formal and structured business setup. Interested? Call or email today to talk to our corporate attorney Jenna DePoy about whether an LLC is right for you! ??
