A really good realtor has to stay on top on all the other aspect of the business. Many time the client comes to us and beside wanting to owned a home has no clue of the rest of the procedure. We need to educate them on choosing an inspector, choosing a title company, getting pre-qualify for a mortgage...and so on. If you are a realtor like me who treat every client has it would be buying my own home it is a lot of to stay informed!We have to read, always browsing the net, go to seminars, continues's education and I love it! All this to say I do agree with you it really upset me when someone refer to us as realtor as "MLS searchers" Im totally agree on we earn our $$.

Good opportunity for us Realtor. I believe networking is very important and at one point or another, we will need eachothers help. I remember seeing a 20/20 special on Redfin (http://a.abcnews.com/Business/Story?id=5190041&page=1) where Redfin stated they where going to change the way Real Estate sales where handled. I disagreed with them at the time and still believe till this day the Real Estate Sales is a face to face sport and always unique in every local market. As a Realtor, we definetly earn our $$. It's not as easy as certain people may think. Tony, I think it is a good thing. Good opportunity for us Realtor.
