I don't think these agents can go long way in this field. I am not surprised at all, I have seen agents doing this so many times. I don't think these agents can go long way in this field.

I share your sympathy for these real estate clients who are being served so poorly by their agents–and wish there were some way to prevent these abuses.

These are the kind of agents who'll do anything to make a quick buck, either by shaking down the seller or the buyer - doesn't matter which one they're representing as long as they get paid. Oh well, what goes around comes around eventually. I feel bad for the clients of both these agents, who I'm sure have no idea that their agents are using them to make extra cash only for themselves.

Amen. And abolishing this greedy mentality would go far in in improving the image of the real estate profession. In all honesty, most real estate professional I know would react as we do–with anger and abhorrence.

This is really no different than if the agent was only showing his client properties that promised the highest commission rather than what is best to fulfill the clients needs. If real estate agents have an image problem, this may be an example of why. Hi Roberta,

The notion that they are so good at sales is completely lame.

If they could influence their clients so heavily in one direction or the other, they wouldn't need a bonus because they would be doing a ton of business.
