I have had a bad realtor before, and I can tell you what a nightmare it is when you get one.
Send me a PM and I'll tell you which local realtor(s) not to use.
Today, have the best Realtor in the history of Allen. He worked hard to find my wife and I a foreclosed home 4 years ago when the real estate market was collapsing and he helped us sell our home this year for a nice profit, beyond what we thought we could get.
He doesn't advertise here yet, but if you send me a PM I will forward his name to anyone.
Thanks

Part of being an expert negotiator is getting a 'read' on people. Pile on SB. Was it not obvious? Do we need to continue the discussion? (you knew I'd bite and respond)
Everyone has an opinion and sometimes an experience can be bad for someone. Someone's perception is 'their' reality. He sang my praises until one house I attempted to sell him was found to have too many issues. Then it was as if the sky had fallen. I'm a 'solutions' person; there's a problem you find a solution. Just a minor disagreement followed by a stark contrast of political opinions later online and he has always been on the attack. It is what it is. Thank goodness we shut down the political forums.
Lots of people hate Donald Trump but he's real successful. Lots of people can't stand a lot of the top producing realtors (way more successful than me) yet they are good at what they do and they get the job done.
This type-A aggressive negotiator and very experienced realtor doesn't take lightly to someone telling me how to run my business (unless they've been in this field). As is evident from many of his past postings he's quite the expert in many fields....many. In my business you don't need a 'yes man', you need someone who isn't afraid to give you the cold hard facts. Soils move in Texas and foundations shift. He got scared of a crack way up high on a house and an inspector and engineer said it was 'not unusual' for our soils. Trust me, that west side of town house at a great price was a far better buy than the foreclosure that had a previous fire.
But now he has the 'best realtor in the history of Allen", someone who doesn't even crack the top 100. I think Mike Williams, James Tan, Michelle Musick, and tons of others would disagree with him. There are some serious power broker/realtors in this town.

My husband and I have used James DeLaGarza as our realtor twice now. He helped us find our very first home, and now he is helping us sell that home and move into our new family, dream home.
Our experience with James has been nothing but positive. He has not only done his "job," he has also educated us on home buying/selling! He is meticulous and thorough, going through every step of the home buying/selling process with his clients so that they feel comfortable and confident.
I cannot imagine having gone through the stressful times of buying and selling without James. He has always been very professional, giving us strong advice that we will most definitely take with us in the future.

I've never used them, yet, but did mow one property for them once. On topic, I'm hearing from friends their difficulty of late, trying to outbid these investor groups.

The investors won't be too competitive with the spike in interest rates. Now it's just normal folks vying for houses. It's still a crazy market because of the inventory shortage. When the rates were 'really' low (gone up nearly a point in a month) investors were snapping up everything. I had a few clients leverage and purchase the max. I also have some fence-sitters that missed the boat.
It's just nice to see the housing market finally correct a bit. The remainder of the year should be good even with the uptick in interest rates.

Wow. How incredibly unprofessional of you. You may know your real estate stuff well, but outing someone like this on a public forum and disclosing all these details is truly low. I don't need a realtor thankfully, but if I ever do I will look for someone with more integrity than you!
