When providing a referral to a valued client, never do this:

Recently, I asked a "vendor" with whom I've had a professional relationship for 4 years for a referral to a real estate agent, because the previous two I had were idiots.  He gave me a brand-new rookie, fresh out of licensing with a background in COSMOTOLOGY.  This idiot was dumber than the previous two.  Long story short, Roofstock saved the day.  

If you are a realtor, property manager, whatever, it doesn't matter...don't refer your "valued" clients lousy, incompetent people.  It's one of the easiest ways to lose business permanently.

New licensees are always bad? Throwing stones from inside a glass house?

A year as an appraiser, not on six of my Michigan Appraisal Management Systems for MI; you were a realtor for bit; and Investment Advisor for Canadian companies... You are great at what you.                          Vendor gifted their time to you providing a name, it's up to you to vet your partners

 "roofshock"  referral $ pay was the perfect fit, or this is an ad?
