Obi Jacobi, co-president of Windermere, Why private listing networks are a ‘wolf in sheep’s clothing’
“While we clearly have a very long way to go, our industry has made great efforts to move toward fairness and transparency, and I am proud of the fact that my dad, John Jacobi — founder of Windermere Real Estate — and his fellow real estate leaders in the Seattle area were instrumental in helping to eliminate such tactics by cooperating with each other to share real-time listing information. In fact, our region was the first in the country to do so via the Northwest Multiple Listing Service.”

“That’s the road we’re heading down. And if we don’t course-correct now, we are going to financially harm sellers and rob buyers, especially those from historically underserved communities, of the chance to build generational wealth through homeownership.”
Leadership.
