Overall this will be a good thing. The good agents will stay in the game (I hope). In the meantime here is a great website about ethical and unethical agents.

I don't think professional agents need to concern themselves with this, just focus on perfecting your game. As I'm famous for saying... "Just go sell a house... whatever it is than ails you today will be better if you sell another house!".

I think locally in the Toronto market we've seen a much smaller drop-off in overall registration, but certainly some of the newer agents have had a hard time at it. that’s indeed some scary stuff.

Now that the job requires a little work, it looks like everyone is jumping ship. That said, those remaining agents have a much tougher job today and are going to have to learn what marketing is once again. I actually got a real estate agent pad in the mail yesterday for the first time in years . . . looks like some people have figured it out.

In Charleston SC we are seeing a drop in the number of agents as well. We still have a lot of part timers that are doing 1 or 2 (or less) transactions a year. The true professionals will survive and make the market a better place. Thanks for the information. In Charleston SC we are seeing a drop in the number of agents as well.

The serious guys and gals will stay in the game because they are good at what they do, and the ones who were just out for the money will walk away by themselves. Less competition for you, more time to focus on your clients. This is probably best for all of us.
