[quote=sdrealtor] . . . Thanks again for all the heartwarming stories particularly the murder-suicide story. You have such a wonderful way of always seeing the bright side of life.[/quote]
Oddly enough, sdr, in all of those “scenarios” I described I have personally been a witness to as a neighbor and/or local agent. Two of the scenarios are currently in progress. And these are all just in my neck of the woods with one being in an adjacent area.
It’s not “scare tactics.” In real life, sh*t happens. What I was trying to say here was that working with a non-local buyer’s agent, especially in an established community, is just plain stupid where there are plenty of good longtime local agents to choose from.
Caveat emptor. Looks can be deceiving. It’s a minefield out there. As a buyer, you can attempt to “go it alone” if you wish but don’t later come back and complain about what (and where) you bought ;=)
