I continue to meet Real Estate Agents that are doofuses
Approached multiple real estate agents in my market with the attempt of understanding pocket deals and to make offers on distressed on-market properties they have listed on the MLS. I have received nothing but responses from Doofuses. Why is that?

A lot of realtors give good ones a bad name but I can also tell you I get people who ask me for off-market some of the time and this is how the convo normally goes: I explain, "sure but I can also show you homes, set you up with the MLS and - NO NO Pete, we only want off-market. We are already working with 4 realtors with MLS deals"
Oh, yeah. Sure bud, I'll just let you cut in front of a few hundred clients that I have.
It goes both ways.
