Dear Friends, I Love YOU But....I will not compromise my license for you. If you have an issue with your real estate agent, I cannot and will not help in any way. You see, there is this Code Of Ethics thingy that prevents me from interfering with another agent's listing.: Standard of Practice 16-4 REALTORS ® shall not solicit a listing which is currently listed exclusively with another broker. Even if you initiate this conversation, I still cannot and will not help you. If I do, I could get fined at the very least. I worked hard to get my real estate license and there is no way in H-E-double-hockey-sticks I'm going to lose it. The only thing I can tell you is to sit down with your agent and have a heart to heart conversation with her/him. If that doesn't work, you have a decision to ma... 11/10/2010

Your Tastes Are Yours. I Have To Shut Up! As a Lindenhurst NY Real Estate Agent, I can't tell a buyer my personal opinion about what I like or do not like when showing homes. Sometimes a buyer will ask me my personal opinion and I tell them I can't because it's your money, not mine. We have different tastes.A few months ago, I was showing homes to a buyer. We walk into this really nice home. It had large rooms, beautiful wood floors, spacious bedrooms, a double fireplace and on each side of the fireplace, it has these custom built-ins that resemble china cabinets. Very beautiful!The buyers stated that they would remove those cabinets.  I could see the homeowner cringe because I know they spent a lot of money on them. I had the same feeling inside. We all have different styles and taste... 11/08/2010

A Good House Warrants A Good Offer You've seen many houses and finally find, what you feel is, THE ONE. It's clean. It's solid. Has the largest rooms out of all the over-priced homes you've seen so far. This house has everything you want and have been waiting for. It already feels like home to you.

In your mind it's going to cost you at least $20,000 because you want all the bells and whistles. You want to offer $30,000 less because of the "huge" expense to remodel the kitchen to YOUR liking. Not going to happen. The seller, is not going to take it and probably won't even counter. Why? Because the seller has a smart real estate agent. He or she found plenty of  comparable homes to sho... 11/06/2010
