[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents have a SFH on a half acre in Mclean (22101), which, for non locals, is arguably the most sought after zip in the DC area. The house is owned outright. It is absolutely move in ready, and updated with new a kitchen and baths in 2014, but it is 'modest' at 3000sqf, 4 beds, 3.5 baths.

[b]The lowest priced SFH in that zip is 1.8. [/b]My sister and I have been interviewing agents to either sell the house now or put it into a rental program until the market improves (spring 26/fall 26, lower rates when the Fed cuts, etc.).

Two of the 5 agents we spoke with tried to persuade us to list the house at 1.2. That's $200,000 BELOW Fairfax County's assessment. The other 3 suggested a list of 1.7- 1.8. We thanked the low ballers and declined their services and they both wrote us emails telling us we were 'ignorant' of the market and would 'NEVER' get 1.7.

The tone was rude, aggressive and unsolicited. It also smelled a lot like misogyny.

My DH wants to put them on blast, broadcast their emails, contact their brokers, slam them on the NVAR website, contact Richmond etc. I want them to suffer consequences too.

Have you ever gone scorched earth on realtors trying to take advantage of you?

If so, how?[/quote]

It's hard to take your post seriously when this is objectively not true (and very easy to verify). You don't have other exaggerate, you could just say "the houses are expensive."[/quote]
