The cult of professional specialists

bearishgurl –

drboom correctly inferred what I meant – people usually use quotes in the way that you did to suggest that they don’t necessarily agree with a description. Instead of putting the quotes in, you could also achieve the effect by putting the words “so-called” in front of the words ‘international expert.’ In any event – he is a bona fide international expert, quotes or not. You might be interested to see this NYT article about him entitled: The Probability that a Real-Estate Agent is Cheating You (and other Riddles of Modern Life)

DR B.
19 are very happy in their homes are in perfectly fine shape. My clients tend to be more well off and have high incomes. They are going to buy and I helped them outperform the market big time.

Ironically, the couple that sold short came to me about to buy in Fletcher Hills which I talked them out of. They would be down over $200K if they had. Instead the house they sold was down about $90K because they sold at the worst possible time. Its already recovered more than half of that. They had financed 100%, made minimum payments (well under rent costs because of a very high tax bracket)and saved the difference. They had the money to pay the short fall but because they never refinanced they had non-recourse loans. We got a short sale done at no cost to them and got them a full written release. Three onths ago they got a call from a collection agency the loan had been sold to who was chasing them for the money. I had an attorney send the collection agency a copy of the release as well as a claim for $5,000 in damages because they were violating fair debt collection practices. They sent an apology letter to my clients and went away. That one didnt really go bad.

Once again I cant point out where you got it wrong because I dont know if you did. Without the details it’s impossible for me to know.

sdrealtor –

I think you missed my point; the fantasy that I was referring to related to your graphic description of being draped over a barrel, etc. In any event, after reading that passage again, I think I will politely decline your offer to sit down with me.
Your fiduciary duty requires you to obey the lawful requirements of your client relating to the sale of his/her property. Your other choice is to provide your client with an unconditional withdrawal from the listing agreement. Since your screen name is sdrealtor, I assume that you are a member of the NAR. Their website provides a pretty clear description of your Code of Ethics. I have to assume that you have informed your clients of the conditions under which you will or will not show properties, and that they have agreed to your conditions. If you hadn’t, you would be risking your license.
