<h3>Greater Boston exclusive buyer agency says homebuyers need open access to all listings, days on market, price changes, and other key property details before making an offer.</h3>
GREATER BOSTON, MA, UNITED STATES, Sept 10, 2026&nbsp;--&nbsp;<a href="https://www.buyersbrokersonly.com/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Buyers Brokers Only, LLC</a>, a Greater Boston exclusive buyer agent real estate company, is urging homebuyers to understand the risks of &ldquo;private listings,&rdquo; &ldquo;pocket listings,&rdquo; and reduced access to property information after Realtor.com CEO Damian Eales warned that limiting listing data threatens consumer protections in the housing market.

According to a June 24, 2026, Real Estate News article by Andrea V. Brambila, Eales told attendees at the National Association of Realtors&rsquo; MLS Forum in Washington, D.C., that the real estate industry faces a &ldquo;right side of history&rdquo; moment when it comes to cooperation, transparency, and open access to listing information.

Eales said the U.S. multiple listing service system helps &ldquo;end asymmetry of information&rdquo; and allows consumers to benefit &ldquo;on equal terms.&rdquo; He also criticized efforts that limit access to property details, including days on market and price reductions, calling the practice &ldquo;madness,&rdquo; according to Real Estate News<h3>Quick Facts About Reduced Property Information</h3>&bull; The issue: Private listings and fragmented listing data may prevent homebuyers from seeing all available homes and key property information.
&bull; The consumer risk: Homebuyers may be asked to make major financial decisions without full access to listing history, price changes, days on market, and other information that can affect value and negotiating strategy.
&bull; The industry warning: Realtor.com CEO Damian Eales said the industry must decide whether it supports cooperation, open markets, transparency, and fair treatment of consumers.
&bull; The local response: Buyers Brokers Only, an exclusive buyer agency serving Greater Boston, says <a href="https://www.buyersbrokersonly.com/buying/boston-buyer-agent-realtor" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">homebuyers&nbsp;should work with agents whose only loyalty is to the homebuyer</a>, real estate professionals who put clients before commissions.
