@carsearch2001 All too true. My favorite are the sellers who don't do any homework (or did do it, but a long time ago so their info is outdated). They act like they know your job better than you do, don't listen to you about pricing or marketing, then blame you for the house not selling.

@DoinThupidThings Sounds like someone dealt with an unscrupulous agent once and made broad assumptions based on that.

Wow. This is more than a little ignorant, particularly Tip #2. Very, VERY few agents would even consider not presenting an offer, as doing so is a good way to not only lose one's license, but get sued. Also, what you think your home is worth, or what your Realtor thinks the home is worth is IRRELEVANT. Neither of you set the market price - only a buyer can do that.

As a Realtor here in Canada, I was both offended by this inaccurate video, and concerned that a potential client may believe this slander.I am Bound by a strict code of ethics and government control. There are very very few Realtors willing to throw away their licence and risk a jail sentence for such stupidity.Shame on you for producing this video.

As a real estate agent, I find this video offensive & highly inaccurate.I like Howcast. But apparently they think I'm a know-nothing sleazebag. Gee :(

Silly advice.

Who is this guy? Mostly bad or inaccurate advice. Colorado has some of the most ethical brokers in the US. Who wants to lose their license for a few buck? Just try selling your own house. Wait till you get a lawsuit because you didn't know the law. Pay a decent commission, show your broker will work hard for you. He has expenses and time, effort spent. Lack of education can hurt you and your wallet.

Some brokers are [deal] breakers. Just as well to speak directly to the seller and the broker will be paid anyway.

This video started off talking about con brokers, finally ends up firing the broker and selling it yourself. That was not the purpose of the video.

This video started off talking about con brokers, finally ends up firing the broker and selling it yourself. That was not the purpose of the video. Bad direction.Lowering commissions also hurt the broker as he gets only 3%, the other agent gets 3% They have to pay their expenses and keep the rest. This video does not talk about broker expenses. This video is misleading. |
