Real estate agents. There are all kinds of real estate agents: short, tall, fat, skinny, talkative, reserved, honest, and exaggerators. I realize this isn’t front page news, but what I try to do on this real estate blog is provide my readers, subscribers, and clients with an inside view of the real estate industry. I don’t believe there should be secrets that only Realtors know. I believe if there is information that could really help buyers and sellers understand how to buy or sell their homes in this market, they ought to have access to that information. Some information can literally save buyers or sellers tens of thousands of dollars.

I never share “secrets” or “insider information” with a view to expose any wrong doing by real estate agents or brokers, nor do I have any animosity toward any of my competitors.

Consumer protection is a theme you will continually see in all that I write in my books and on this blog as well as in my videos. I love helping people, and having been a real estate lawyer, I am keenly aware of the sales pitches and the gimmicks, not to mention misrepresentations, that are made all the time to suck consumers into a less-than-honest relationship.
