Interesting. I never heard of it, or that NAR was sponsoring a show.

 

UPDATE: I watched the first episode of Season 2 just now. So first of all, you don't need Hulu- you can watch via the link above. Second, the episodes are very short 16 minutes. Third, they aren't much different from any of those types of buyers-need-to-make-a-choice shows although the REALTOR® does mention code-of-ethics. In the episode I watched the couple wanted a place that would accept their pig, yup, and there was no discussion at all about HOA rules. In fact, the first place they looked at was a townhouse with a tiny area outside the front door that they were going to use for the pig. Really? Seemed pretty unlikely.

 

Anyway, I hope our dues are not paying for these shows. While they probably meant well, the shows wouldn't make a typical buyer feel any differently about REALTORs®.

I am not a Hulu subscriber.

It looks like you can watch on Youtube.com at this link.

Each episode is only a little more than 15 minutes.

Never heard of the show ... and if I had heard of it ... not something I would be included to watch Buzz Mackintosh 

Why am I not surprised to learn that the NAR is sponsoring the show. How much of our required dues are being spent on a TV show?

My father forwarded that to me the other day.  Hadn't heard of it.  Wonderful that our dues money is being spent like this... but it's better than the client-eating zombie realtors that were on Netflix.

Buzz,

We rarely watch TV,  And this would not be of interest to us.  I think NAR should be focused on responding to member's needs rather than come up with expensive television shows.  A
