Realtors are Not Trained..

Realtors are Not trained by their Brokers. Why Train them when the Realtor is an Independent Contractor and they will eventually move on or open an office and be your competition. It is up to the National Association of Realtors to make sure they live up to their supposed "Higher Standards" Motto by Enforcing Ethics, Getting Rid of Realtors who don't comply, making their Realtors, their members accountable for the Damage they Do to the Real Estate Consumer. Really bad stuff happens to buyer and to Sellers and No Body is Looking. No one Cares to Look because protecting you is a very big hassle and the Real Estate Industry is in Such a Mess that to Fix it would take a Huge amount of Work, Rules and Regulations and somebody - some agency - some where to actually enforce the Rules - Regulations and Laws that are in Place.

Selling without a Realtor is Easy, Provides More Protection, Gets a Better Price, Gets Buyers Faster and has way less Stress - Drama and Financial Damage.

Read ALL Your Paperwork BEFORE you Sign.

You can be distracted into signing papers that you don't mean to sign. NOT to say that you are not smart or paying attention. However, you would be surprised at how many REALTORS can make you think that they know more then they do, you feel confident and you Sign based on what the Realtor says that the paperwork says. Oftentimes the REALTOR themselves do not REALLY know what your signing or how it will affect the rest of your life.

You see the REALTOR, the NAR member is protected in the Real Estate Transaction and YOU the real estate consumer are NOT, even if you the Real Estate Consumer are a REALTOR. The E and O insurance of the Realtor enables them to Lie, mislead and have plenty of protection in the Process.

So many of my real estate consumers don't want to read what they sign, they just ask me what it says and trust what I, the Ex-Realtors says to them. YOU need to READ and understand what you are signing. Remember Real Estate FORMS are meant to Protect REALTORS, member of the National Association of Realtors and they are NOT meant to protect you the Real Estate Consumer.

When a Legislative Issue Comes Up that May Hurt Realtors but Benefit the Real Estate Consumer....

When a Legislative Issue Comes Up that May Hurt Realtors but Benefit the Real Estate Consumer, they - the National Association of Realtors, the Local and State Association of Realtors put out the Call to Get all the REALTOR, NAR members to Fight for whatever it is that NAR wants, oftentimes NAR does this in the Name of what is Best for the Real Estate Consumer, however this NOT likely to Be True.

The Only Reason a Multi-Billion Dollar Company like NAR would Put out a Call would be to Save their Billion Dollar Income Stream from Shrinking.

If it was in the Best interst of the Consumer and this was Really What NAR was Fighing for the Real Estate Consumer then they would spend these millions that they spend on Lobbying on TV ads, Newspaper Ads and ways to Reach the Consumer and have them Stand up - Write Letters and emails with the Realtors, but that is NOT what the Call to Action is About... it is About NAR Staying in Control of You, and the Realtors on the Ground in Your Town want to Keep their jobs so they Stand Up and Do what NAR tells them to do.

How do They "Put out a Call" they send ALL Realtors Emails - Newletters - Association tell all the Members they have access to - they even give you form letters to email or send ( talk about anti-trust issues) and they Stand United to KNOCK you DOWN.

Common Sense tells us that REALTORS are Advocates for their own industry, however, who has got your back in all this? Not Politicians.. I mean Realtors make BIG money. I sell One Large Ranch I make well over $100,000 dollars, I can afford - a REALTOR can afford to keep you in your place, and they use your own legislation and system of laws to do it.

They Know the Laws - the Protocol and they Know Just What to do in Order To get Things done, they have meetings and training to teach them how to better Fight for What they want withing the United States Justice System, there are no Consumer Classes to Train you on how to get things done on your own behalf. Training Realtors to Fight - to Lobby to Stand against Consumer Rights SHOULD be an Anti-Trust Violation.

NAR and the Realtors in your Town Have more Political Power than you or ANY consumer rights advocate group could ever have and they are getting stronger. Realtors, some are quitting - New ones will join and through it all REALTOR will get bigger with online sites, stocks, Internet Marketing and Ad Revenue - selling books and classes - selling useless accreditations and making more money from YOU..

Comment from "Certified Appraiser"

The Blue Words are from the "Certified Appraiser"

and the Words in Black are My thoughts

on His Opinion, His Words.

a

"our cause is noble as there are a lot of unscrupulous people in the real estate profession, however i recommend revising your videos.

your example on youtube of someone coming into town and offering more than double what a house is worth for a home that is not for sale.

this is not an arms length transaction, therefore not an indicator of value. "

BULL. If I - when I was a Realtor - had someone walk into to my office as a Realtor, a Broker Owner, and I write up an offer on a property and enter into the MLS, first of all the Appraiser don’t know if the Realtor has a listing on it or not. Secondly, Once the SOLD is their in the MLS – where I enter it, if I was Still a “Realtor” than the Appraiser WILL use it as a Comp. And Not even Know the Arms Length... of it all.

The Appraiser’s Don’t EVER See the Listing. They don’t know how long it was Really Listed, if it is a One time listing, or if it was exposed to the "Open Market" . The Appraiser see's it as Arms Length Because it is in the MLS – a Realtor can Enter whatever dates and information that they want in order to make the Appraiser See what the Realtor NEEDs them to see. It Really is Easy to Create FALSE data and it is a Free For All when there Never is an Auditor from the NAR that Checks the "Realtor's" File for ANY kind of accuracy.

Arms Length is the Least that is Looked

for as a Corrupt Date Indicator.

The Example I Gave on YouTube IS “an Indicator of Value”, many variables lead to Value and the Realtor can create what the Appraiser NEEDS to see to create the Data that the Realtor Wants to Make the Sale Happen.

Just Because the Appraiser

Does Not Believe it - Does NOT Mean

it is Not True

CoR

Arm’s Length..

the “Certified Appraiser” has No IDEA if it is “Arms Length”.

The Appraiser Does not EVER know the Relationships Between a Buyer and Seller, if they are ‘Friends’ , “Family”, Distant Relatives or In-Laws and have somehow staged a Sale.

Interviews… Will NOT get the appraiser the Truth.

The Realtors FAKE “Arms Length Transactions” buy doing a Listing when the Buyer Makes an Offer on the Home for Double… See the Appraiser Does not Know what Really happens in the DATA, the National Association of Realtors Puts a system in place to Let Realtors Sell – Sell – Sell and Create all the Forms and Back up information – data to make it comply to what all parties ( including appraisals) to Make it Work to Get the Paycheck at the End of the Day, EVERY DAY….

My Opinion is NOT up for Revisions. Unless You can Provide information that I, as a Real Estate Whistleblower, Ex-Realtor, Broker Owner have witnessed to Be True.

x

it has not been exposed to the open market ie. being "listed for sale" on mls. so why this data would be on mls, i do not understand.

x

Again, Appraisers are Clueless. Realtors Sell property ALL the time that is NOT for sale in the MLS and then they enter it into the MLS, hence 3 DOM (Days on the Market).

And what is Open Market, if I have a dozen listing for Sale and I am NOT a member of the National Association of Realtor, Hence, NOT in their Database, than as a Real Estate Broker Owner are my listings Exposed to the Open Market?

If a FSBO advertises on the Internet say Craiglist and a Realtor brings a buyer, had that real estate for sale been “Exposed” to the Open Market.

Was it “Listed for Sale” or is the word “Listed” reserved for member of the NAR.

What if I Enter My SOLD data, as a Non-Realtor on Zillow when it sells – is that the “open market”.

This Kind of Data is MOST Definitely On the MLS that The appraiser is looking at to value homes in your neighborhood.

x

"same holds true for someone coming into town and buying a house from someone for half market value who did not expose their dwelling to the market. it is not an indicator of value. "

x

Yes this also creates false data, and again the appraiser would not really know the truth of whether it was Exposed to the Market or Not… Again MLS data says what the Realtor Says it Says.

x

Also with this, this Example WOULD never be used, the Seller, the Borrower, the Realtor and ALL parties looking to get paid – including the Appraiser WOULD never use this comp. they NEED a higher value for that Sale or that Loan to be a Success.

x

"additionally, you will see an appraisal requires multiple verification source. not only mls. i have never used mls data only (to your credit, some fraudulent appraisers may) however this is not the norm"

x

Ok, what other Data Does an Appraiser Use?

Could it be other appraisals that Used the data, could it be

the Broker or a Sellers “interview” – their word for it.

Maybe the Appraiser Uses the Seller’s brother’s appraisal

as “Verification” – I have seen that.

x

Maybe they use bank data, Zillow, or the Talk around Town.
Or is it some other mysterious Market Indicator

that Appraisers “magically” use to Form their

All Knowing Opinion that Sets the Real Estate Market

in their Area and Give the Go ahead for a Sale,

a Home Loan, or a Home Equity Loan.

Multiple Verification Sources…. Lead to the Same Source

r

"either assessor files or deeds typically are
an additional data source. therefore if mls says $350,000
and deed says $340,000 typically there

is a 10k sales concession that needs to adjusted for."

r

Appraisers don’t always look at the deed, and in my limited experience among states,

most I have seen have NO price on the Deed.

R

I think that is Unethical as well for it l

et’s a buyer know what a Seller Paid and it is Nobody’s Business.

Assessor Files ???

They are, the Assesor Files, in my experience hundreds of percents LOWER than I can sell a property for .. so could luck using that as part of the “Verification” Process.

R

By Hundreds of Percents Lower, for Those Who Do Not Understand… What I mean is. If the Assessor says a Ranch is worth $120,000 and I can sell it for 1.2 Million, which happens often, then this is 10 times what the Assessor Thinks it is Worth. So another Words.. for the Math Challenged - if $120,000 is One Hundred Percent of what the Assessor says the Ranch is Worth – than 10 times that is more than a One Hundred Percent Increase and More than a 900 Percent Increase… Hence the Comment “Hundreds of Percents Lower”…

R

real estate data

about commissions. they do not affect value.

real estate confessions

No Commissions DO NOT affect Value in the Current Corrupt System of things.

tell the truth

But they ABSOLUTELY should.

appraisal data
If I charge 4% to Sell a Home and another broker charges 8% to sell a home that is similar by appraisal standards than that is a LARGE difference in One Value to the Next.

Add a Selling Office Commission in and you have ANOTHER huge Cost Adjustment that should be made that the Appraiser is Clueless about.

The Fact that Appraiser Do Not Consider Commission is Corruption in the Data in and of Itself.

x

"concessions do as I’ve identified above. value in an appraisal is what the typical buyer is willing to pay, not what a typical seller is willing to sell for."

x

A “Typical” buyer wants to pay as Low as they Can, a “Typical” Seller wants as much as they can get. The buyer pays what they have to, what the Seller will allow.

r

So VALUE certainly is Created by what the Seller is willing to take. If the Seller sets the agreed on “negotiated” price, and the appraiser puts a value on it based on other SOLD data – so the banks can then lend on it – that price the Seller agreed to Sell for than YES the “Seller being Willing To Sell For…” CERTAINLY does Make, Create VALUE.

I know this is the way things are done. I am saying it is Done Wrong. I know your doing it the way Standards are Set up, I am saying that the Entire Real Estate Industry is a “House of Cards in a Hurricane” and that it NEEDS a Massive and Complete Makeover.

realtor fraud

"sellers pay the commissions not the buyers. so if a seller pays, 3%, 6%, 50% on a $350,000 transaction it doesn't matter. "

x

BULL – the Buyer Pays as Low as the Seller Allows, I am not saying that this is Not Standard or Law… I am Saying it is WRONG and it Definitely DOES create Corrupt Data across the board.
An Who Really Pays the Commission is an argument that could go on for days.

x

I mean the Buyer is the One “willing to pay” as you say and Quite Literally is Really is the Buyers Money, via the Lender that goes to the Title Company that Pays MY commission…

r

The Seller may take less if I the Real Estate Broker was NOT in the transaction so it CERTAINLY does Matter.

x

what matters is what the buyer is willing to pay for that house or a suitable substitute minus concessions. the battle is not with reporting commission, the battle is with reporting concessions.

x

The Battle is All of the Above and then Some.

I am NoT Dissing Appraisers. I am Speaking VERY negatively

about the Realtors and the Data base that appraiser use.
This Data Desperatley NEEDs Quality Control...

NOTE to Post

Buyers Agents use agreements, Buyers Broker Agreements, to Strong Arm Sellers, if the buyers agent does find a FSBO, as they say the can – will and if the Seller finds it the BUYERS agent still demands they get paid, then this is put into the MLS, is this an Arms Length transaction? This goes into the MLS as a FSBO found by a Buyers agent for a seller, will it be used by an appraiser as a Comp? YOU bet it Will… arms length will not come into play if this Comp is Really Needed.

The Real Estate System In Place is Very Very Bad for
Real Estate Consumers.

KEEP Realtor from Being "Public" - Why ?

They Say..."many REALTORS® don't realize the importance of protecting the trademark. If we don't protect it and it becomes "public" it will lose all its meaning. "

This in Regard to Protecting the Trademark, THEY don't want you to call them a Realtor - but they - the troops in the field most ALL call themselves Realtor.

They don't Want the WORD realtor to become "Public" domain - this is Scary - Controling - and shows the Mind Set of the National Association of Realtors in My Opinion.

This goes Right along with the Association of Realtors NOT wanting you, the General Public to ACCESS what THEY call "Their" database when it was your Credit, Your Hard Work, your money - blood, sweat and tears that Created the Data Base THEY think that they Own.

Not wanting a Word to Be Public Domain, Public Property should be against every Law of the Land in EVERY way. What if Someone Who Invents, started a Club and called it "Inventor®" and made you pay to join, then everything you invented calling yourself an Inventor you would answer to them the all knowing power who trade marked the Name.. Realtor - SHOULD not have been allowed to be trademarked in the first place.

What about Professor - what if that was Trademarked?

What if You wanted to be a "Supervisor" you had to Join a club and be a member to access the job and you could not call yourself a "Supervisor®" without a trademark on it. the letters "OR" on the end of a word and Scared it will be public, seems to me like the Realtors® are Scraping and Crawling to hold on to "their" Profession that your NOT allowed to call a profession.

Bogus...AppraisOR - CounselOR - DirectOR - CoordinatOR - SeniOR - AdministratOR - InspectOR

It is a GOOD thing that "Realtor" did not get to Trademark to OR names as well and keep them from being PUBLIC... What a Racket...

Realtor®S Label themselves on Websites and in ads everyWHERE - not as Real Estate Agents, NOT as Salespeople or Real Estate Brokers but AS Realtor®... Yet NAR says the WORD Realtor® is NOT to be used as a synonym to a profession but THOUSANDS of Ads... thousand of website have Real Estate Agents - Brokers using Realtor® IN Place of "real estate agent" and Yet NAR Does Nothing about that but they want me to Sugar Coat www.SavvyBroker.com

The Department of JUSTICE should STOP the Blatan- Rampant Disgrace and Consumer Attack that the Association of Realtors and it's army of Realtors is Doing to Innocent Real Estate Consumers Every Single Day.... STOP the Goliath - the National Association of Realtors - THEY are a Billion Dollar Industry that is Making Money from Consumer Data on Websites, Not policing their own industry (yet not to be confused with a Profession"), money from Accreditations that Mean Absolutely NOTHING to the real estate consumer, money for technology to Realtors that real just makes NAR money and Does not Help YOUR Realtor actually get Internet Marketing.

NAR does not want your REALTOR to compete with them so they teach them Internet Marketing that leads to Mega-Sites that they own ALL or part interest in and on Meg Sites - Your Real Estate for Sale in your Specific town - in Your Specific State Gets Lost... NAR is NOT intended to operate for the best interest of the Public.

Real Estate Listings - Lies - and YOU..

How Accurate are Real Estate Listings on Websites?

They are NOT accurate at ALL. The Property could sell before you even see the Listing. Realtors will Keep it on the Site on purpose as Bait to get another buyer. Also if you Put your Real Estate for Sale on Several Online Sites, it is VERY hard to go back and Delete them all and Hey - it's FREE publicity.

I have EVEN seen Realtors put Signs on Property that are NOT for Sale and When Someone Calls they Say it Sold, and they conveniently Find them Something Else.Realtors deliberate enter false or misleading data sometimes, or sometimes don't enter the listing at all to "hoard it". Some say that this is NOT still happening .... IT is..It is IMPOSSIBLE to "Clean Up the 'Realtors" Industry" And I SEE no measures in Place by the National Association of Realtors do Really Even Try.

Ethics are NOT Law and Realtors Don't EVEN follow them, no ONE is looking and even if they do get caught in Lies, they are Self Policed so NO Trouble getting through that one.

Try Harder, take another meaningless Class. Realtors Lie Every Day, Realtors have NO One Looking over their Shoulder. Some think that Brokers watch over Agents "Realtor" Brokers don't care. I once called a managing Broker on a Very Serious deal that ended up in a Seller Losing a Good Deal and a Lot of Money.

The Managing Broker (Realtor) said " I can't help you - I am on the Grievance Committee" - How can a Managing Broker be on a grievance committee ?

Doesn't it Limit them being able to Supervise their "Realtors"? This is ONE example, There are hundreds and most likely thousands, where Realtors, Brokers, DO Not care if agents in their office VIOLATE ethics or Break the Law.

I have called my local MLS office on Violations, information on Fraud, information on inaccurate MLS Data, information on "Realtors" - agents working for more than one office, information on agents lying about Known Defects to the Point of Sellers losing everything, and THEY offered no belief No Support.Realtors are Self Governed.

They decide their own fate, they decide who "gets in trouble" for what, and if any Harm was Really Done and to Whom. You can Just Imagine How that Plays Out.

And if you go to the State Real Estate Commission about a Realtor they wash their hands of it - because they DO NOT have the Money, Lawyers, or Political Power to Stand up to the Local, State or National Association of Realtors. - You Lose.

If you Get an Attorney, a Real Estate Attorney to Fight for You, if you KNOW and Can prove without a Doubt that a Realtor lied or concealed a "Known Defect" - Latent Defect - or Adverse Material Fact" than you will think, as a Real Estate Consumer that you will have Recourse and that Justice Will be Served.

It Will NOT be served.The "National Association of Realtors" and Local Real Estate Boards encourage Realtors and some states Even Mandate Realtors to Have E and O insurance.

They "pretend" that, and convince us Real Estate Brokers and You Real Estate consumers that a "Realtor" having E and O insurance is good for real estate Consumers. It is Simply NOT True. The E and O insurance that YOUR Realtor has is intended to Protect Your Realtor from you.

So even if you Know and Can Prove without a Doubt that Your Realtor Lied about something in, on or around your real estate transaction and you can Really Prove without a doubt how much it Harmed You.

So In this the E and O insurance company will FIGHT YOU for Years, and EVEN though you have Black and White, without a doubt Proof the E and O insurance, the Realtors will Prove that Somehow it was you, the victim of real estate fraud, your fault. They will keep you in court for years, take precious years from your family, you will live in debt and stress because of the Realtors LIE, you Have Proof - and No One Will Care.

And in the End you will most likely Give up, Because the Association of Realtors is Big Business and Protecting the Real Estate Consumer is NOT the Business They are in.

It is Even Worse if the Agent is Century 21, ERA, Coldwell Banker or Sotheby's Because they are ALL owned by the Same Billion Dollar Company and they can FIGHT for a Decade.

The Association of Realtors DOES nothing to Protect YOU the Real Estate Consumer, they are Out to Protect the "Realtors" - all the while claiming you had better not use the Word Realtor to Describe a Profession... this - they say is a Trademark Violation.

The NAR is scrambling to Stay Relevant in the Internet Age and they Are Hurting the Real Estate Consumer in the Process.

Crystal L. Cox ~ NOT a "Realtor"

Did You READ this...

this is the NAR Statement on the Mortgage Market

"NAR Statement on Actions to Stabilize The Secondary Mortgage Market
WASHINGTON, September 08, 2008

The following is a statement by National Association of Realtors® President Richard F. Gaylord:

“I commend Treasury Secretary Paulson and Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Lockhart for their bold actions to bring stability and continued liquidity to the nation’s mortgage market. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have always played a vital role in the U.S. economy by making fair and affordable mortgage loans available for home buyers and owners. Their critical mission must not be interrupted, and Sunday’s announcement goes a long way in making sure that does not happen.

“NAR believes that the announced plan will help restore confidence in the secondary mortgage market. We appreciate the steps taken to calm the market, make mortgages more widely available and protect taxpayers. This demonstrates that the government is clearly committed to keeping the flow of capital uninterrupted, which is crucial to the housing sector and the economy.

“We look forward to working with the administration and Congress to ensure the continued vibrancy of the secondary mortgage market."

Realtors Lie - Legally

Folks I have to Say...NAR Caused the Collaps of Freddie and Fannie and Caused SERIOUS problems in the Mortgage Market. Realtors are Not looking to see what Brokers and Agents enter into the MLS Database to see if it is accurate this creates a falsly inflated housing market. Appraisers can lean which ever way they want on the "Opinion" which by definition is what an appraisal is, so if they use the Realtors Data to Form their supposed "opinion" and this data is overinflated, or mis-entered on purpose or on accident than this creates more corruption in Real Estate Values.

real estate truth

Realtors work with Appraisers to get the "Real Estate Value" where it NEEDS to be in order to make a deal happen.

Some Realtors even create fake sales or suggest sellers have a friend buy one property too high to Get a Comparable Sold into the MLS database and then other homes that Seller has that are similiar (say like a whole development) are "worth - valued" at a higher price. All the lender needs is some sort of Valuation process to Justify the Price they Lend - a Comparable SOLD from an MLS Database will do just fine.. who cares if it is REALLY accurate.

real estate whistleblower

years of this lead to false value and yes a tumbling down...

realtors lie

They find or create comps to help them out and other helpful ways. Realtors work with Mortgage Brokers to FORCE deals that Buyers cannot afford.

real estate

What if the Realtor Enters False Data, what if the appraiser does NOT factor in the Selling Bonus or the Commission (that is Supposedly different on every sale and between the Broker and the client) , what if there is a Sellers Contribution (money given back to the buyer from the Seller ) and this is included in the SOLD price?

All of this happens every single day in real estate across the nation and everywhere that Realtor is located and this leads to prices being unnaturally raised, loaned on, inflated and then YES - of Course One Day the Buble Bursts... It is all about a paycheck and the Association of Realtors is at the TOP of the Food Chain.

Real Estate Books Contain Confessions Of a Realtor

So don't believe for ANY reason that the Association of Realtors has Nothing to Do with the State of the Mortgage Industry - they are Front and Center.

Mary Newill - the Strong ARM of Realtor

When I emailed Mary Newill in 2005 about Other Domain Owners that were in Violation she said on some of them that they were “not an active domain”. The names were “parked pages” this means that the Registrar or the Domain Owner WERE definitely Making Money from the Advertisers on the Page but the National Association of Realtors Was and Still is Clueless as to what an “Active Domain” Really Is.

Other Domains such as MontanaRealtor.com are Being Monetized, Used and Money is Being Made by this domain name by ad space for the Web Hosting Company 1 & 1. So who does the Association of Realtors Allow to Make Money from their supposed good name, and who do they Keep from Benefiting from their supposed good name.

the NAR does not get what is happening and they do not seem to know how to STOP the Internet from running away at the mouth about Realtors. To Stop "Realtor" in Domain Names SHOULD be Stopped at the Source.. Make Sense?

the Internet will SOON Wipe Out Realtors
there is NOT One Reason to Use A Realtor
in Your Real Estate Transaction.


http://numberonerealtor.com/
at the time of writing this post this is a Parked Domain name, the Registrar, the Domain Name Owner and the Parking Company are MOST definitely making money from this name and Realtor Does Nothing, they Assume that the name is not in use… DUH…


http://arearealtor.com/
Again a Parked pages where the Registrar, the Domain Name Owner and the Parking Company are MOST definitely making money from the ads on the page but Hey as long as they are NOT Realtors is seems to be Ok, and if they are Realtors well Mary Newill may or may not send them a letter depending on her level of understand of the Real Estate Media on the Internet… Duh.


http://number1realtor.com/
again parked page where Money is Being Made… again… Duh…

http://realtor.biz/
another parked page most likely making BIG Money from ad space and Mary Newill thinks it is simply not an active domain, … DUH it is also for Sale for some Sucker to pay big bucks for it


http://www-realtors.com/
Another parked page making money that Mary Newill simply does NOT understand.

http://internationalrealtor.com/
Parked Page



www.WashingtonRealtors.com again a Parked Page, Mary apparently stopped them 3 years ago but allows people to still make money from the name … duh it is Paid Parking, the advertisers are not there for FREE… but Realtor Does not understand this type of Media so they Simply BRING the hammer down and STOP the site from Selling Real Estate, as I was and now Realtors and lots of other companies simply get to Pay Someone to advertise on the Site. Also with this, Mary in all her Wisdom or Favortism Let WashingtonRealtor.com Stay on.

Things that make you go Hmmm..

Mary with ALL her Power and Might managed to convince these sites to shut down.. and Stopped the business on the site but let 3 Years of Ad dollars go to the Registrar, the Domain Name Owner and the Parking Company – This Should Tell you, the Real Estate Consumer a WHOLE lot about the Mind Set of the Association of Realtors.

The Above Names are Examples that Mary Newill discussed with me 3 Years ago and Still Mary Newill and the Association of Realtors DOES NOT get what these domains are doing, they are simply satisfied with STOPPING me as a Realtor from using the name Realtors while they let sites like the above examples make money from names with Realtor in them and they let the Registrars Sell these names and Make Money from the Sale – But they Keep Members of their association from using the name, well at least some of them… Why?

Also 3 years ago I told Mary Newill of a Man who was at the Realtor Trade shows promoting the Leasing of Domain Names that contain “Realtor” in the name.

Hundred and Hundred of Domain Names with “Realtor” in the Name are STILL for Lease today 3.5 years later at that Same Company and I wonder if this Makes Mary Newill Sad.. as stated in her email to me about my actions.

This same Domain Name Leasing Company was welcomed Open Arms by the Association of Realtors, the NAR even Wrote and Article at one time in support of this company. I read the article on Realtor.org when I was a member.

The Domain name aftermarket has lots of “Realtor” names for sale and Realtor wants to STOP a site called SavvyBroker.com Why? Think about it Folks….

People have been buying and Selling Domain Names with Realtor in it for years, and the NAR simply does not get it. Mary Newill would better spend her time at the Source – which is STOPPING The Registrars from Making Money Selling the Domain Names.. instead of chasing down millions of Domain Name owners.. Duh.

Mary Lets IdahoRealtor.com redirect to IdahoRealEstate.com Hmmm who makes money from that name….

Mary Newill is so busy chasing down the little guy and people like me speaking out about the Realtors that she does not even know how to real stop the Rampant Trademark violations in the Domain name ( Hint to Mary : Start at the Registrar) if the Association of Realtors cannot STOP the Registrar why can they Huff and Puff and Take Away Your Domain Name… Maybe they can’t … I canceled ALL my Realtor Domain names (225 of them) and the Registrar has resold them and made money AGAIN.. the Association of Realtor either could not – would not – or did not do anything about this… NAR is after the Little Guy – Plain and Simple.

Come On – Why Stop One and NOT ALL… Another Motive Possibly?

Realtors Get You More Money ~ NOT

http://www.SavvyBroker.com There is No Consumer Protection in Real Estate.

Realtors Cannot Get your MORE money for your Real Estate, it is simply NOT True.

It is Said That a Realtor Can Get you More Money. It is said that if a Real Estate Agent is not a Member of the National Association of Realtors that they do not have their high standards and simply will NOT do as good a job. This stuff is NOT true .... A real estate agent is either honest or not, either wants to do right by the consumer or not. Whether they are a not so exclusive "member" of the Association of Realtors or NOT is simply irrelevent. This magic "label" does not automatically instill honesty in someone.

They say Realtors abide by Ethics and that if they do not than the association fines them, repramands them or finds some way to STOP this behavior... NOT True... Many things factor in to whether the local "Realtor Association" actually calls a person on their unethical behavior. Things like what committee they are on in the community or among the "boards" of the Realtors, is the Realtor "dreamy", how much money do they have, do they own or run a franchise, is the Association afraid of "their" attorney, and all kinds of Irrelevant factors play on the decision to actually make a Realtor abide by the Ethics.

The Association of Realtors is "Self Governed" another words NO ONE is Watching, looking, listening, auditing or Really Even cares what they are up to. There will be people who say they do audit, they do care, and claims that Realtors are held to a higher standard. All of this is Propaganda to Make You, the Real Estate Consumer think that you need a Realtor to Sell your home.

Adverse Material Facts

Something that the Realtor and the Seller knows that could harm the buyer at a future date but they fail to disclose. Realtors can Easily slip out of this one by saying that they did not know it would come up in the future, the Seller said they fixed it. Doesn't the Realtor have an obligation to the Buyer, to the Real Estate Consumer? Apparently Not.

Real Estate Recession

Real Estate is Hurting Real Estate Consumers.

I personally blame Realtor for the Current Real Estate Recession. Real Estate Prices have been out of control for quite some time. It is sad that even today as foreclosures rise and Sellers lose everything, Realtors still get 6%. The buyer walks away with nothing because their mortgage is higher than their home is worth. And the Realtor still gets the same paycheck, WHY?

The banks pay the realtors to sell their homes, that they now have because the Seller lost them.
This is Wrong.

Realtors caused this mess and continue to benefit from it.

The Real Estate System is REALLY broken and hurting consumers BADLY.

Seller Can Now Legally Lie

In Wisconsin, it is NOW Legal for a Real Estate Seller to Flat Out lie to a buyer and a buyer has no recourse. I think this is pretty out there and BOLD for Wisconsin. Other States, such as Montana and Oregon, just pretend that there is Consumer Protection, and Pretend that if a Seller or a Realtor lies that there are laws in place to protect them, but it is not true, check out the following article and PROTEST.. this is a DISGRACE to the Real Estate Industry, as if things were not bad enough.

Wisconsin court bars fraud lawsuits in home sales

MADISON, Wis. -
Home buyers who believe a seller has lied to

them cannot sue for fraud to recover damages,

a divided Wisconsin Supreme Court said Tuesday.
The decision is bad news for home owners and sellers and makes

Wisconsin the only state in the country barring civil fraud cases

in real estate transactions, Justice Ann Walsh Bradley said.

She was one of three justices who broke with the four-member majority.
The opinion opens the door for a home seller to "look the buyer in the eye,

lie about the condition of the home, and escape legal consequences," Bradley said.

Buying a Home - Selling a Home

Folks you NEED to know what my blog says Before you Buy.

I can tell you visual secrets that really can save you a whole lot of stress and money. And though, there are naysayers I really can give you tips that could save your life. Your Realtor is NOT liable for the Structural Integrity of the Home you Buy.

www.ConfessionsOfARealtor.com

Your Realtor will not provide you with in support after

Selling Your Home, they will simply walk away,

and say My Job here is Done.

Your Realtor NEEDS to know a whole lot more than they do. We are NOT taught anything that is really of important and protective use to the real estate consumer. Realtors and Your State Real Estate Commission or Board act like they are out there fighting for consumer protection, but I just don't see it. The Real Estate Consumer is Hurt Every Single day and there seems to be no recourse.

The Realtor's E and O insurance is to Protect the REALTOR from you.

The Realtors FORMS are to protect the Realtor, I mean Come ON,

a form that says basically all homes have

MOLD - deal with it - sign here - I am not responsible.

Realtors get paid the most from the Real Estate transaction

and they have the least liability. - Why ?

Consumers NEED to Know the Truth and STOP

the Real Estate Cartel from ruining their lives.
