Re: Has anyone had a Real Estate agent....
There are several "services" and jobs who's cost no longer reflects the value it once did. Besides the Real estate agent, the first to come to mind is the travel agent. At one point, they had access to information that was very hard for the normal Joe to come across. Now anyone can go to Expedia or Travelocity and book the exact same vacation, for less, that a person in a shop used to.
Stock brokers are another job who's price is no longer worth the service they do -since the normal person can do it all themselves! Just 15 or 20 years ago, you couldn't even watch streaming real-time stock quotes. It was something you had to pay BIG $$$ for, which is what the broker did.
