Some even accross the street going for $500k, since they are right on the water (my lot wouldn't have direct access to the water)Thanks for your feedback

Hi @Natasha Richardson,I wish I could answer your question more directly but it all depends on the location, quality of property, recent sales activity, supply and demand.

By and large best treatment...direct pressure, as you did. 

You might be able to drive for dollars and work the phones enough to turn up a few deals, but if you need substantial volume to generate startup cash, you're probably going to have to pay for direct mail or other marketing techniques.

If so, what keeps the buyer from going to the seller directly?

Professional photos, 3D scan, SEO presence and experienced agents that are paid based on your customer service experience is what I'd look for..paying someone for any level of service just doesn't seem like a good investment to me.I would also question the ethics of any brokerage/agent that bad mouth's or publicly makes false statements about another brokerage in direct violation of National Association of Realtors Code of Ethics (low paid, inexperienced agents)  I guess some folks feel a need to tear someone down to build themselves up!

Always appreciate any direction.
