That's a great question! We're finding that, bit by bit, as people (including broker-owners and managing brokers) become informed as to what ACRE is really all about, more and more of them are embracing it. As a matter of fact, several of our newer and most enthusiastic members are actually managing brokers who are building their offices on the ACRE concept and training their agents in how to offer consulting services to their clients.
Several other members have talked about how they approached their own managers and owners with a fair amount of trepidation expecting a fair amount of push-back. As they gave those managers more information on what this is all about, however, by and large they were pleasantly surprised!
It's just like when buyer agency began. I don't know whether you were in the business in the mid 90's, but if not, I've got to tell you that IT got HUGE push back from the "traditional" real estate industry. Now, we don't give it a second thought. I expect one day the same will be true of Consulting.
Below are several sites that provide a wealth of information about consulting and ACRE. Please feel free to visit them and then pass the information along to your broker. People tend to fear most what they don't understand.
