The following exchange took place on message board that I have become involved with. This a very valuable resource for me as it gives me an uncensored look at what the general home buying and selling population is saying. It also gives me the opportunity to defend what needs defending and expose what needs exposing, not to mention giving me tons of great blogging material. It doesn't hurt me in my quest to become the #1 name in real estate either. It also saves me from having to type things twice while I am busy debunking the myths that the general public has about the evil cabal of REALTORS®. I think you are going to see my blog taking on this direction on a pretty regular basis.

"I don't believe that any R.E. agent ever protects the buyer. That would be because their money depends on the sale and making sure that the seller gives them that check".
And my reply:
"Oh nooooooo. Although I agree that there are many, many incompetent agents out there, the majority of us realize that the clients interest comes way before monetary compensation. It sounds to me as if you may have been dealing with a timid, maybe newer agent who got overwhelmed by a shark. You should go to the Real Estate Licensing authorities and report that agent. In fact you should report BOTH agents that were involved in your transaction. They both should be held liable. You should probably call them out by name as well. Incompetence should be exposed".
As always, if you have found yourself receiving my blog postings via e-mail, it is because I have either blogged about you personally, blogged about something I know is of interest to you, or I consider you to be a person of deep thinking and intellect and I would love to have you occasionally commenting on my blog. If you would like to be removed from the list simply send me an e-mail saying so.
