Novice, I am sorry you were offended. It was not my intent. I was raised to value education over sports, so how is that bigoted? I am explaining my own upbringing. I am a minority race too. How can I be bigoted? I agree that political correctness has gone too far. Crediting a race with valuing academics is not even remotely similar to calling someone’s home a crack capital.
sdrealtor, congratulations on your success. How many million dollar homes did you sell this year versus last year? Do you think the high end is staying strong? You say your sales volume is up, but how is your number of sales this year versus last year, which is what we keep reading about: we read that sales are down 30%, and I wonder if your own sales are down 30% too. Perhaps you have fewer listings, but they are more expensive ones. That would be a way to keep up your revenue in a declining market, to get the higher priced listings. Hopefully there are no contingencies where your buyer must sell a property first. Those are kind of risky. But it sounds like you would not accept that type of offer anyway. I wish you the best, even if we don’t see eye to eye on many things. I value your role as a breadwinner to your family, and hope you can keep providing for your family in the manner you like. I hope you can feel the sincerity of this wish for you.
