Sitting at the Kids Table!

Do you believe that you as an industry have an identity? This recent RESPA reform and certainly any action taken by the MBA (e.t. MIRA) suggest the Settlement side has no identity and they don’t seem to want to acknowledge it.  I am just suggesting that shouldn’t there be a distinct line drawn between the Financial and Property side of the transaction?  When do we get recognized and treated with equal respect at the Big Boys table?
