I don't understand it. One would think that the more years you've been in the industry, the better deals you would get, but people prefer younger agents for some reason

Not sure, maybe there's some interesting research about this out there

I think a lot of buyers like working with someone they can relate to, so young buyers would naturally gravitate towards younger realtors

Here's an article with some insight: https://www.seattletimes.com/business/real-estate/younger-real-estate-agents-find-their-age-can-be-an-advantage/

Any thoughts on McKool Smith? Considering lateral opportunity to IP Litigation group (Dallas office) as mid-level associate.

Where do they stand today (in terms of work flow/quality, associate opportunities, culture, quality of life, etc.)?
