I have to agree with you, Harvcarp and vegasknite… I too took a LONG break from the forum because I was bored and angered too often by the U.S. naysayers…I thank you!
This is in reply to dhsbooker… We have sold several houses by suddenly (after 60 days of a 90-day listing)offering an extra thousand dollars to the SELLING agent. It always angers the LISTING agent who wonders why he or she wasn’t offered the extra thou, but in every case the house sold immediately. And I have always felt that the listing agent should get no more than 90 days to sell the house. And this is to everyone: Be sure you also interview at least three agents. And tell them to throw out the comps and look at your house as an object in itself.

Why don’t you just be grateful to these obviously nice and knowledgable guys who answered your question in gentlemanly fashion, thank them, follow their advice and get on with your life? Vitriol is not called for in this forum.
Idordal, don’t take Scott apart. He’s trying to help you with some simple truths. I doubt the coffee had much to do with it!
