Just having fun with the analogies and sorry that you dont enjoy them. My fidiciary repsonsibility is to represent them in the sale of the property as their representative and to negotiate on their behalf for the sale. My duty is to them not to buyers. I make sure the property is available and do everything i can to get any interested buyer in to see the property. There is nothing that requires it to be me who shows it to them. I have never discriminated against any buyer. In fact, if I were to represent a buyer in the sale I beleive I would not be extremely dificult to fulfill my fiduciary responsibility to the seller. Additionally, if I represent a buyer that creates a conflict of interest and potential discrimination towards other buyers who have their own agents.
I take great pride in a few things. First I try my absolute best to always put my client interests ahead of my own. I beleive I can hold my head high in saying I have held myself up to this standard. SEcond, I take great pride in tha fact that not only have I never been in arbitration but I have never been in mediation either. As a matter a fact, I have never gotten a single call from a client asking me why did you you let me buy this property.
BTW, I just checked my record and I made a mistake. I was wrong when I said that i had 3 bubble era buyers sell fro a gain. There were actually 5.
Lastly, Hey Joisey what exit? I lived off Exits 4 (hometown), 9 (college) and 10 (after college) for the 1st 30 years of my life. I can concurr on everything you said about corruption back east. Its much better here and I think you will ove it as much as I do.
