If you are an agent who has any bank-owned properties, you may want to watch out.  An article in yesterday's Atlanta Journal indicated that the county is starting to site listing agents with fines for not taking care of the yards on their bank-owned listings.

This is so unbelievably wrong in so many ways that I can't even begin to comprehend how it ever came to be; but it is happening and you should know about it.

Here is a link to the article with details:
