EDUCATE yourself about WHERE YOUR REAL ESTATE AGENT IS WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD - 04/14/10 11:26 AM
As real estate agents, we all run into skeptical buyers and sellers who think all we do is open doors, pull listings and collect a commission.  If they only knew!  Some deals are easy; some are not.  Our knowledge of our markets, staging, marketing, researching, negotiating - the list goes on and on.
Loreena and Lenn have both written excellent posts on this subject that are worth repeating.  Please take a few moments to read them.

Not a long ride, I picked Gwen and her daughter up on the way.  It rained the entire way.  We were so busy talking, we barely noticed.   Good thing we had her daughter who was directing us, because we talked non-stop for the half hour it … (2 comments)

This is great information put out by Richard Velstein, an attorney in Massachusetts, about what to ask before purchasing a condominium unit.   It doesn't matter whether the unit is in Massachusetts or Florida, the questions remain the same.
