It's a Matter of Trust

I often run into people who don't trust Realtors. Sometimes, I can understand why. They feel that agents simply want to sell them something, and will do anything to get them to, whether it's bending the truth to outright deception. Instead of real service, it's all about getting paid, and once they're locked into a contract, it's all downhill from there. It certainly is a challenge building trust in this kind of environment.

Of course, then you have NAR making a drastic mistake on numbers in NJ, which doesn't help. (I believe them when they say it's an honest mistake, but for the skeptics, it only fuels the fire... Like any professional, whether contractors, attorneys, mechanics, you name it, there are always those you can trust and those you can't. Trust can be earned, but I know it's a challenge.
