Just to counter your counterpoint, you proved my point. Here is what you said “my wife and I had a bunch of buyer’s agents blow smoke up our posteriors, including a member of my wife’s family who is a 20 year RE veteran. We couldn’t trust any of them, so I represented us through our first six months of serious shopping. There were some agents who didn’t want to have anything to do with me. Their loss. Others were cool with it and worked with me.”
The most important part was the last sentence but let translate. “Others were cool with it and wasted their time with me”.[/quote]
Bad translation, unless you understood that we actually worked with any of the clueless/untrustworthy buyers’ agents we talked to; I can see how you would get that impression from what I wrote. We didn’t. Some listing agents refused to talk to me because I wasn’t an agent.
You’d have to be drooling stupid to not work directly with people like us, however rare we may be, unless your real agenda is to protect the status quo.
