Do you really need Real Estate Brokers in Property Transactions?

Definition: A real estate broker is a professional who negotiates and facilitates real estate transactions. They assist in buying, selling, or renting residential, commercial, industrial, office, and land properties, ensuring smooth transactions for all parties involved.
