Funny thing is anytime someone comments on how their sold their home FSBO, the agents always chime in with..."the seller probably did not know their market and sold for way less than an agent could have got them".

I think my favorite line of Realtors right now is : Price it RIGHT and it will sell !!!

And I notice all the Realtors blame the Sellers for not reducing their prices and expectations . But I've never seen a post on City Data or in the news admitting that they had ANYTHING to do with the home NOT selling .

But IF a home SELLS , the Realtors are bragging from the rooftops about what a great agent they are and how FSBO's don't work !!

The PARTY'S over PEEPS !! EVERYONE has to adjust their pricing and expectations, and that INCLUDES Realtors, as well as Sellers!!!

p.s.
JMHO as always, but I'm usually WRITE
