I empathize with Michael. I've had three agents here within past 10 days. One gave me poor construction advise regarding a deck, " just punch holes in the boards with a screw driver to see if you have weak boards". Dummkopf idea, how about providing a list of local handymen or contractors. She arrived with no presentation, no comps, nothing.
2nd agent, chatting to much, arrived to estate farm country with pointed silver shoes, and chatting about a near vacation to France...Running solo managing two homes on 5 acres, and you talking up your France vacation and I can take care of you when I return...No thank you.
3rd agent, great guy, great Scandinavian last name, savoy dresser, has over 20 rental properties (he says), brought comps, information regarding my property, personal signed guarantee performance letter, and spent time discussing property.
Each real estate agent gave me a different comp for my property. Agent 1, list for $650k, Agent 2, list for $680k, Agent 3, list for $750k.
Q: Do I list FSBO or go with Agent number 3?
