Asking about my money

Account Closed

I really don't like for a realtor to ask me how much money I have. I feel it isnt any of their business. I don't want to offend them but when I go in and ask about land for sale they ask how much money do you want to spend. I know they kinda got to ask but just because I have $80k dosent mean I want to spend that much & I dont want to be offered just the high priced places because they will make more comission. How do I word it when they ask so im not rude? Can I say im not sure what I want to spend show me the cheapest and we will go from there? Something like that? I know they are just doing their job but that is how they make their money off the comission and they want it to be as high as possible. I will have cash as well.

You should be the one setting the price range of the properties you want the realtor to be showing you. You don't and shouldn't disclose the exact amount of money you have, simply give the realtor a price range you want to stick with and thats that. Hope this helps!
