Re: Has anyone had a Real Estate agent....

Pros: She (and any agent) have keys that can let you into any home at almost any time. If your home is listed, it is just about open to any other agent who wants to show it.

Cons: Other than THAT, just about everything. She is doing squat. Gone are the days when agents helped you FIND a home (we're doing that ALL on our home), so why are they going to get 20 grand?


So..... Has anyone bought a home recently where their agent actively helped, using their knowledge of the area, find a home?
Yes, we have. When we were getting ready to move across the country, I was able to find a realtor who has been great! They are hard to find...I ended up using the one who would keep in touch with me and return my numerous phone calls.
