Why?

  For any reason why the makers of a market shouldn’t be allowed to participate in said market.

    > the makers of a market shouldn’t be allowed to participate in said market. by definition a market maker participates in the market.

      They shouldn't be allowed to privately participate in that market. Since that leads to conflicts of interest with their job.

  It’s an inherent conflict of interest. The agent that owns real estate is incentivized and, perhaps more importantly, empowered by virtue of his license, to favor his own property over that of other clients. I should amend my comment though: an agent should not be permitted to practice while he holds property, and he should not be permitted to hold property while he practices.
