Besides the hand-picking, the so called listing agents/realtors also discourage potential buyers from submitting offers. I noticed this property (http://www.sdlookup.com/MLS-071085224-12575_Senda_Panacea_San_Diego_Ca_92129) closed last week for $810K with same selling and listing agent. My agent and I did contact the listing agent when the price dropped to desirable level but was told don’t bother because they got plenty of offers in the pipeline. We were willing to put in at least $830K because of the house, canyon view, upgrades, etc….
Anyway, this “ethical” agent did what is best or him or herself instead of idiot banks. I hope there is a way to rat this lowlife agents. I am with you Murf222.
