Untrustworthy real estate agent?

Lara Nicole
Posted

I've been working with a real estate agent who has a good reputation for a few weeks.

So far we lost two offers & I always send her the property address for her analysis before I/we go check it out. She has been honest so far with red flag properties but recently she gave me a green light on a property that was on a busy street with no driveway & only parking on one side of the street. She said it was ''ideal''

I replied back confused asking her if the busy street & no driveway would affect appreciation & resale value & she completely changed her tune, saying ''Not likely to impact appreciation – it will go up the same as the rest of the neighborhood – but it will always be worth less than if it weren’t on a busy street. The combo of the busy street AND no off-street parking would make me pause unless it’s your dream house. Those are two pretty big flaws.''


I feel she is now more focused on her commission than helping me avoid undesirable properties, thoughts?
