Looking back on real estate services stocks’ Q3 earnings, we examine this quarter’s best and worst performers, including Compass (NYSE:COMP) and its peers.

Technology has been a double-edged sword in real estate services. On the one hand, internet listings are effective at disseminating information far and wide, casting a wide net for buyers and sellers to increase the chances of transactions. On the other hand, digitization in the real estate market could potentially disintermediate key players like agents who use information asymmetries to their advantage.
