While I know that people think that MLS only is FSBO, it is not. This is an important distinction for states. MLS only listings have REPRESENTATION and by state definition are not FSBO. They won't get counted in FSBO stats because they are legally represented by an agent. It is just limited representation in nature.
So while you think there is some type of great lie going on here, you need to understand the definitions of representation from a state law standpoint. There is no great consipiracy to lie to the public.
