[quote=Anonymous][quote]I think having a realtor is like having insurance. If something goes wrong during the process of the sale, like with the contract or a difficult buyer, they are there for you. Most times, nothing goes wrong. And then, yes, they're overpaid. But if they have to work out some complications for you, then they're much more worth it.  [/quote]

Very untrue, in fact, most realtors don't handle these situations very well. You are actually better off having a real estate attorney than the realtor. We sold to strange buyers who tried to make odd ball demands a week into closing such as asking for things to convey that were clearly listed on the does not convey and other odd things. Our realtor was a goofball and we referred to their agent to our real estate attorney as if they didn't show up to closing and close within the terms of the contract then we would not be returning the money in escrow. This took care of it pretty quickly.

I think people would be better served with a real estate attorney charging a flat fee or hourly fee to handle the contract and negotiation. [/quote]
