Is my realtor nuts?

Da Deep
Posted

So I'm in the market for a house. In the current climate, I would think it is a buyers' market and sales are soft. My realtor wants me to believe otherwise. She tells me she's busy as ever, homes are selling left right and center. When she shows me homes, she tells me to make an offer that's about 95% of the asking price, when I'm inclined to make an 80-85% offer. Lastly, I've told her TWO preferences to check when showing me homes and she often does not. There are times when I walk in the main door, then walk right out because the property has zero appeal to me since it does not conform to the two preferences I have.

Because she wants me to make offers that are ~95% of asking price, I haven't made a single offer yet.

Should I change my realtor or am I expecting too much?

thanks, Dave
