Good for you Bay Area! Anyone listen to Clark Howard? I used to like him, but he has become so critical of Realtors lately.

Clark has made alot of money in Real Estate and giving financial advice but this is what he now tells his listeners to do when selling:

Interview two or three agents and pick their brains as to how they will market your property. Take notes, thank them, use their data and info, and save money. Sell it yourself. If and only if you run into trouble, then call in the so called expert. The NAR has such a monopoly on the RE field you are beholden to use a "Realtor", but you don't have to. Realtors are so hungry now, they beg for your business, and will give you whatever...............

What I listened to was rebroadcasted from a previous date. I don't get the live version. but they are only a day or two behind. The guy does have a huge following though, his show is sindicated and he appears on alot of TV shows as well.
