The Morning: The Realtors’ big defeat

Plus, Vladimir Putin, pandemic school closures and Irish crushes.

View in browser|nytimes.com March 18, 2024 SUPPORTED BY By David Leonhardt Good morning. We're covering the significance of a real estate industry settlement — as well as Vladimir Putin, pandemic school closures and Irish crushes. In New Jersey.  Tony Cenicola/The New York Times 'They laughed at me' Free-market economic theory suggests that the American real estate market should not have been able to exist as it has for decades. Americans have long paid unusually high commissions to real estate agents. The typical commission in the U.S. has been almost 6 percent, compared with 4.5 percent in Germany, 2.5 percent in Australia and 1.3 percent in Britain. As a recent headline in The Wall Street Journal put it, "Almost no one pays a 6 percent real-estate commission — except Americans." If housing operated as an efficient economic market should, competition would have solved this problem. Some real estate brokers, recognizing the chance to win business by charging lower commissions, would have done so. Other brokers would have had to reduce their own commissions or lose customers. Eventually, commissions would have settled in a reasonable place, high enough for agents to make a profit but in line with the rest of the world. That didn't happen. Instead, an average home sale in the U.S. has cost between $5,000 and $15,000 more than it would have without the inflated commissions. This money has been akin to a tax, collected by real estate agents instead of the government. The situation finally seems to be ending, though. On Friday, the National Association of Realtors, the industry group that has enforced the rules that led to the 6 percent commission, agreed to change its behavior as part of an agreement to settle several lawsuits. The settlement is important in its own right. Americans now spend about $100 billion a year on commissions. That number will probably decline by between $20 billion and $50 billion, Steve Brobeck, the former head of the Consumer Federation of America, told my colleague Debra Kamin. There is also a broader significance to the settlement. It's a case study of a central flaw in free-market economic theory. That theory suggests that capitalist competition can almost always protect consumers from businesses that charge too much. To be clear, competition is indeed a powerful force that frequently makes both consumers and businesses better off. That's why capitalist economies have such a better record than communist or socialist economies. Just look at South Korea and North Korea. (Are you familiar with the satellite images that compare the two Koreas at night?) Or consider the recent economic struggles of Venezuela. Market competition, however, isn't the panacea that free-market advocates claim. Sometimes, businesses can amass enough economic power to squash competition — as real estate brokers did. Power meets power Decades ago, the National Association of Realtors set the standard commission at 6 percent, to be split between an agent representing the seller and an agent representing the buyer. If a home seller tried to negotiate, an agent would often issue a veiled threat: You won't find a good seller's agent to work with you, and buyers' agents won't show your house to clients. Joanne Cleaver, for instance, tried to negotiate with agents when selling her house last year in Mint Hill, N.C., a suburb of Charlotte. "They laughed at me," Cleaver told The Times. The Realtors' hardball tactics succeeded because they operate much of the network that's crucial to the housing market, such as the database of listings. They could keep out agents who would have competed on price. In Chicago. Jamie Kelter Davis for The New York Times The solution to this concentration of economic power often requires political power — namely, antitrust enforcement by the government. After years of refusing to change their tactics, the Realtors' agreed to a settlement now because they were vulnerable to government action. A turning point was a federal trial last year in Kansas City. The jury found that the Realtors' association and several large members had conspired to keep commissions high and ordered them to pay at least $1.8 billion to home sellers in the Midwest. The verdict quickly led to more than a dozen other lawsuits. The Justice Department has also been investigating the Realtors. The new trustbusters That investigation is part of Washington's new focus on the problems with concentrated economic power. Since the 1980s, antitrust enforcement has been unfashionable in the U.S. Free-market economic theory has been ascendant instead. But the results of this laissez-faire era have been disappointing for most Americans. Businesses have grown larger, and corporate profits have surged. Incomes and wealth for most Americans have grown only slowly. In response, both liberals and conservatives have recently shown an interest in antitrust (as I described in a recent newsletter). The Biden administration has embarked on a competition agenda to reduce credit card fees, drug prices and more. The administration has become more aggressive about challenging mergers, too. Some Republicans also worry that big business has become too powerful. This new movement remains in its early stages, and it's too soon to know how successful it will be. But the real estate settlement looks like the movement's biggest victory yet. For more: The Times explains how the process of selling a home may change.

Before he died, the opposition leader Aleksei Navalny called on his supporters to go to the polls at midday yesterday to protest. Many did. Putin spoke about Navalny publicly for the first time since his death, which Putin described as an "unfortunate incident." Many Russians support Putin, but it's not clear what they would do if they had real alternatives. Read Paul Sonne's analysis. Here are other takeaways from the vote. Israel-Hamas War Israel said it was conducting a military operation in Gaza's largest hospital, Al-Shifa, because Hamas had returned there. Benjamin Netanyahu told CNN that Senator Chuck Schumer's call for elections in Israel after the war was inappropriate. "We're not a banana republic," Netanyahu said.
