Fatal Buyer's Remorse?
Agents take precautions after Virginia realtor killed at home he sold - YouTube
VA realtor was recently shot dead by his firm's 84yo client who had just bought and moved into the home a day prior.
“He bought the house sight unseen from Alabama, moved in here Thursday and called a real estate agent Friday to return the house,” a neighbor told the news outlet.
What's best to avoid such brutal remorse or whatever these days?
Cams don't deter people, especially suicidal ones!
So what does? Concealed carry for realtors nationwide??

It's a tough position with an out of town buyer, like this one was, since we cannot "steer" a client to or from a neighborhood. Refusing to transactions where the client has not physically seen the property would help. I don't know of any other solution to protect us from crazy. We could just as easily encounter a crazy shooter in the middle of the grocery store.
