“We’re seeing significant implications … people aren’t moving nearly as often as they typically do because current mortgage rates are so much higher,” said CEO Marvin Ellison on a post-earnings call.

Doing the right thing is easy in theory, but often the hardest in practice. Our family established Baird & Warner more than a century ago with a mission to serve buyers and sellers with transparency and integrity, and we’ve endured many changes in our industry during this time.

My father, who took a stand in the 1960s against the then-common practice of redlining, which eventually influenced the establishment of the federal Fair Housing Act, is just one example.
