Market crash – what better time to get a great realtor?

For all the complaining people do about realtors (and realtors must know that people do complain about them, hence the “what a realtor can do for you” sites out there), I think the real problem is not realtors in general but BAD realtors.

Hence Rate a Realtor sites like ours (launch date of Aug 15, 2008 still looks good). The great realtors float to the top based on what CUSTOMERS/CLIENTS say… not based on inflated marketing budgets.

Here’s some interesting info about why home sellers in the US need great realtors now more than ever: The 20-city index’s Sun Belt cities, which recorded the biggest price gains during the boom, have led the charge down. Las Vegas prices have plummeted 28.4% during the past 12 months; Miami prices fell 28.3%; and Phoenix homes lost 26.5% of their value.

It’s starting to happen in the west in Canada, too. Great realtors, if you’re up for the challenge of selling in this sort of market, get ready for some help rising to the top! 🙂
