10 Reasons People Don’t Like REALTORS®

Here’s a recent list by Fred Glick of 10 reasons people do not like REALTORS®

I can’t possibly comment for fear of Real Estate jail   but please feel free to add you own comments and observations.

In reverse order the top 10:

10. Facebook listings from agents who don’t know how to type, spell or understand Facebook.

9. Teams are dumb and people know it.

8. Almost everyone has a license, so you are not anyone special in their eyes.

7. You still advertise in a newspaper that no one reads.

6. You try to make them sign a Buyer Representation Agreement when they walk into your open house.

5. Dual agency.

4. You write agreements when the possibility of the client getting a mortgage is zero.

3. Overpriced listings.

2. See number 8 again.

1. And the top reason consumers hate real estate agents…….Bad hairdos from the 70’s on business cards.

Fred’s list first appeared on Agent Genius but I think my photo is better.
