That weight is steadily decreasing because they can no longer hide behind their wall of sold data. For example,
CREB even sold their data to a for-profit entity which they set up with other boards as a way to be compliant competitively. They also cut themselves off at the knees as the top value prop for a realtor WAS access to data.
Consumers can now educate themselves with platforms where you don't have to speak with a realtor (in no way, shape or form am I affiliated with the below):
If good realtors are worth their weight in gold, then a halfway-decent real estate lawyer is worth their weight in antimatter. This is where I actually found value in the RE process.
