Dear Santa Barbara Buyer or Seller,
Real estate agents are no different than a cheeseburger ad on TV. It’s a sales job. Except one is delicious, and the other one is really expensive.
No agent is nice to you because they want to be your friend; they want to make a commission. No agent is all-knowing of the S.B. market. Even if they know people. They're telling you their best guess on everything, and their best guess through the lens of sales.
