My rule of thumb is more information is better and gatekeepers are bad.

So I’ll pass on this.



> more information is better

Agree.

> gatekeepers are bad

Somebody has to pay to gather, store and present information in usable fashion in order for it to be of value. It doesn't just appear or self-assemble.

The alternative we face may be something like France: buyers pay in time, shoe leather and exclusion from opportunities what they would save in agent commissions.


Sellers also have a strong incentive to make their listings discoverable.
