What have we heard them called? Liar’s Loans, I think.

You are so right about loyalty being earned, though.

Often times an agent will be upset because they showed someone a few homes and that buyer then buys a home using a different agent. Sometimes the buyer wasn’t educated about how agents are paid or maybe they just didn’t feel the loyalty to that agent that they want.

But loyalty has to be earned, and we can’t win them all.

They must reveal to buyers any known defects, insurance claims, and a long list of other issues that could affect the property. Additionally, we work with buyers to make sure the necessary and professional inspections are completed.

Perhaps we are gifted, but dishonesty very rarely rears its head in our transactions.

Nice site you have, by the way!
