One Percent Realty myths and facts... I have heard it all but this is the big one.
The other agent wont show my house.
Well if this was 1972 I would agree with that but this is 2007 and the consumers run the show now. The home buyers look at what they want to look at. If the agent wont show them a house guess what happens to the agent...good bye...hello new agent.
If you are looking for a British Columbia Real Estate in any-town and see ten houses in your price range and two are listed with one percent don't you think if someone said "I don't like those two houses you should stay clear off them" it would raise suspicions about the agents integrity. It is his fiduciary duty to work for you and show you all the product not the ones that will make him more.
99.9% of agent are ethical and do show all the house that are right for the customer. They may not like the new reality of the lower commissions but must know that this is the wave of the future and commissions are coming down.
One Percent is just leading the pack and riding the wave of the informed and educated consumers who want to pay less.
