Thanks to Keith over at Housing Panic, this is something that cannot be passed up:
See how Century 21 tells you how you need them:
Keith nails it:
Why use a Century 21 realtor? Because they watch your eyes! Funny, I thought it was because computers look silly in yellow jackets.
See someone’s youtube response:
If you remember, I stated that rebates from agents are coming; and coming fast.
Brad Davidson over at We-Help-You-Buy offers an average 2% rebate; buy a 500K house and get 10K back… not that I recommend buying right now. Still not enough downward pressure (soon, very soon, my pretties).
Redfin also offers an average 2% rebate; viewing homes is a bit restrictive, but otherwise a great option if you know what you are looking for.

Cute yet deceiving Century 21 commercial! I’m not a real estate guru but have purchased a few homes in the last decade- so I have a wee bit of experience dealing with real estate agents. I have NEVER been given a clear or specific response about the neighborhood or schools. In fact, Century 21 agents were the worst about providing such details. In every instance I was referred to the local police department for neighborhood crime statistics and reports- but I was assured it was “a nice neighborhood”, and, as for the school districts- most didn’t even know the names of the schools in the community and all referred me to contact the school district to obtain academic performance data.
anyone with an elemetry education can become a real estate agent !
