[quote=jpinpb][quote=SD Realtor]As far as what Bill does, I don’t care what anyone says, I do not believe it is a victimless crime. [/quote]
It for sure stops being a victimless crime when the taxpayers have to foot the bill (even indirectly or as a result)[/quote]
What does it take for people to stop exaggerating something as “criminal” in this argument, when it is not? It’s just interaction with policy and parameters way beyond the layman’s influence. That is, unless we do what Arraya is suggesting and team up against the establishment,fat chance.
Is a buyer a criminal because they take a tax credit? Subsidized interest rate? Loan backed by the government? Are you going to do your part and refuse these things JP? Is the Realtor refusing to work, on moral grounds with someone using one of these? How many strategic shortsales are there? I bet there are no Realtors lecturing them. Realtors run from the possibility of offending a short seller of any kind and do some butt kissing in many cases. Everybody is in it for themselves.
