The first realtor we used took us to a grand total of three houses which were all 30% lower than the bottom of our price range. She told us that we should make an offer to prove to her that we were serious. She said that we could make the offer subject to financing and then back out. We left her and found a much better realtor the next day who worked with us and found a great house.

The famous saying 90/10 is especially true in the real estate industry. 90% of the money is controlled by 10% of the realtors. While the industry could do something to weed a ton of the bad apples out, they make money off it. The public has the opportunity to find the agent they want.
Some types of agents I have come across that I can see leaving a bad taste in their clients mouth.
- The part time realtor
- The think im going to get rich overnight realtor
- The every house we visit is the perfect house for you realtor
- The let me sell your house and spend as little money marketing as possible realtor
Ill leave you with a listing I found earlier
