Do you want aggressive, pushy and responsive dealing with a very big asset or NICE?
I am assuming it is a second home since you said "small place out of town" therefore this is not your primary residence.
Either way whether a second home or a primary residence I would go with #1 and hopefully he/she isn't so aggressive and pushy as to alienate other agents/clients/prospects (and hopefully has some "nice" thrown in with all of those other attributes you seem to be turned off by) but you definitely don't want a wet noodle which is what #2 sounds like to me.
Yes, I am an agent.
