ABSO-FREAKIN-LUTELY!
In the era of DIY and HGTV,
where Streeteasy and NYTimes.com put listing data just a
mouse click away, today’s buyers often think they can purchase without representation. Truth: they can tackle the job alone, just as a hiker can trek Everest
alone. But the question I’ve asked and will
ask again, is: Why would anyone want to?
Although it’s a rhetorical question, I’m always surprised when
I get answers. Below are some responses
as well as my replies. Long story short:
what may seem like a good idea initially can quickly reveal itself to be a bad
one, with just a bit more information added.
