I’ve learned the hard way – and repeatedly because I didn’t get it the first time or the second time…or – anyway, those bargain seekers are inconsiderate of my time and professional knowledge. Since they believe they can do it without me, then they should – without the free access to the MLS that I provide.

Thankfully, we can choose who we want to work with and I’ve found the “want it all’s” buy nothing at all because it’s never good enough.

DUDE (OKay, DUDETTE!)! We are in a HOUSING market … not a FLEA Market!

All these so called investors need to take a course in reality and ethics before trying to take advantage of people who were, like you said, PROFESSIONALLY guided into decisions that now are causing them heartache.

I am pretty sure you would be justified, Athol. Agents should not take sh*t off of so-called bargin hunters, they don’t want your representation but they want your product and will cut you out the first chance they get. Remember, they arent clients w/o the agreement, they’re a customer- kick’em out of the store.

The irony is that if the majority of buyers are hunting for “deals”, that just floats the “deals” up closer to fair market value.

I just got an email from one of my deal hunter buyers who doesn’t want to sign a buyer broker, refuses to get a pre-approval, and wants details on every hot deal available. Explicitly clear that he wants foreclosed homes emailed to him and nothing else…

“Merry CHRISTmas”

I kid you not.

I’m seriously tempted to just cancel his email alerts.
