In the same way the Uber is a threat to organized taxi services? Real estate agents have always been middlemen in the real estate transaction. Giving buyers/sellers the option to complete transactions with or without additional middlemen seems like a benefit for organized real estate from the buyer/seller perspective, doesn't it? Of course that's going to be a threat to everyone in the middle that makes money off the process. I've always thought that making the MLS exclusive was bullshit to begin with. As long as people have the choice to still work with agents (who obviously have experience and first-hand knowledge that you only get from that job), let it be a threat.
