| It is written REALTOR in capitol letters.A professional pronounces it REAL-TOR, not REAL-a-TOR or REAL-i-TOR.The finger nails on the blackboard sensations come over me when I see real estate professionals forget the word REALTOR is a trademark name.NAR has asked its associates and friends to print the trademark logo after the word, when writing it use all capitol letters.NAR owns the patent, and trademark rights. |

| Unless you are a REALTOR and pay the dues mostly the rest of us don't care. |

| Why do REALTORS deserve so much respect ? Many of them are below average people, some have made huge money. SO WHAT, they got lucky.Is it because they get people to agree to "full commissions" without really telling them that it's all negotiable ?Is it because they work "so hard" to get a listing, only to have other agents bring the buyer, which is the hard part, and they split the commission ?Is it because they make a commission based on the selling price, (which is ridiculous) why not a flat fee ??Or is it that $50 fruit basket that they send after they made $5K-$10k on the transaction ?Some people are in homes today because the REALTOR that they dealt with urged them to buy more house than they could afford and told them that it would go up, and not to worry. Now they are facing foreclosure.Yes, yes,, I know how hard they work driving the looky-loos around, wasting $3 a gallon gas, in their air conditioned fancy car, hoping to write an offer.Fingernails on the blackboard sensations come over me when I hear some REALTORS give advice. |

| Looks like you're not having any good responses here. Looks like the idiots prefer to be rude rather than learn something. Waitin' for a phone call? |
