DPX–or Decentre Property Exchange–is an online marketplace for real estate. And it comes from the heart and mind of Rob Hahn as a potential solution to current real estate buyer/seller woes. As Rob states, DPX offers transparency, highest price for a property, efficiency, faster transactions, and a better consumer experience. It’s also duly noted that Rob Hahn, as the mind behind DPX, is treated in this episode more as a guest than a co-host as he is pretty much interviewed by the Fab Greg Robertson. Could real estate auctions be coming to a town near you? Find out what Rob and Greg have to say in this week’s episode of Industry Relations!

What should it take to be a realtor? And, perhaps a better question, what does it currently take to be a realtor? Homebuyers are using realtors more than ever before, but Rob seems to think that doesn’t mean realtors are performing better; in fact, it’s quite the opposite. This episode of Industry Relations dives into the world of the National Association of Realtors, the standards by which realtors operate, and whether or not today’s realtor is actually living up to the NAR’s own mission of creating professionals in the real estate industry.
