bobby seems like a nice guy but the constant hype from him is damm sickening. if you're doing so damm well why do you have to brag on a internet board?it should be illegal to adverstise and spam on a forum like this. looking at the home i'm assuming you sold for 280k or so?
I was tempted to ignore your post as being baseless and without merit, but I'm compelled to address what is obviously a personal attack on your part. Few, if any, realtors on this board post any "hype" about either their business or the market in general. All are well aware that it's a tough business to be in these days, and most are struggling to feed their families. Though realtors may have played some part in what became this monster bubble, most reasoned people would agree that there's enough blame to go around. "Irrational exuberance" was evident on the part of realtors, banks, mortgage companies, builders, developers, investors, Joe Buyer, etc.
Illegal to advertise or spam?? Spam IS prohibited, but I can't think of a better forum for promoting your business than sowal. Many sowallers know each other; most know the local businesses and are quick to either endorse those worthy or ignore those that aren't.
Bobby didn't create this thread. A satisfied customer did. Any business person in sowal or anywhere else would be thrilled to have an endoresment like that. And if your mention of the price was meant to denigrate Bobby's efforts, please keep in mind that neither he nor any other realtor or seller has the power to set market price, but a good realtor will tell a seller what fair market value is. Based upon the speed of the transaction, I'd say Bobby nailed it.
Please go have a cocktail, and come back when you're in a better mood.
