This is a pretty cynical world we live in where when one person exerts HIGH INTEGRITY, it doesn't seem to be the norm. Almost out of ordinary and down right surprising. It's quite sad to say that, and especially in the sales world where Yay is not a Yay (18 comments)

It has been marketing to home buyers that our Buyer Agency services are FREE to them. Have we really been truthful about it?
Yes, our Buyer's Commission is paid for by the Seller, but isn't the Seller's Bottom Line almost always include Buyer Agency Fee?

Back in March, I received a phone call from Realtor.com who (18 comments)
