State licensing and regulation.
Uberizing would apply to FSBO (for sale by owner) transactions possibly.
Most (all?) sates have a law that regulates the sales of properties by owners or principals to 4 or less properties per year -- so you need a broker's license to sell multiple properties per year. There are complex ownership schemes one can use. A corporation counts as a legal person, etc.
There could be a Uber Broker (state licensed) selling as an agent over an Internet platform for a flat fee or something of that nature ... National sales would have to be using state government licensed brokers. You cannot escrow money then record property titles and loans without a state license either.
