Experience?
Classroom Education?
Online Webinars?
As I perused through the MLS this morning searching for newly listed properties for a client of ours I noticed many agents commenting on their "expertise" of Short Sales". After further investigation I noticed that many of the so called experts didn't have any short sale listings so I immediately assumed (mistake) they must have gained this expertise assisting buyers with short sale purchases.
I started checking the sales history of some of these "experts" and discovered none of them had any sales representing buyers or sellers in short sale transactions whatsoever. I assume once again they are assigning themselves the status of "expert" based on classes or designations received in a classroom setting.
My question;
Does a designation or classroom certificate make you an expert? And is this form of advertising false and or mis-leading? What say you?
