My first broker told me this:

"Buyers area liars and sellers are worse."

After a few years in the business I added:

"and real estate agents both buy and sell and look out for a commission."

NAR monitors how the general populace views agents. The public perception never seems to vary. They view agents as all in the same group with lawyers and used cars salesmen. I ran a big franchise(think Pittsburg Steeler colors) for awhile and I posted that NAR study in the office kitchen with the pertinent parts highlighted with magic marker. The owner of the franchise saw it one day and got a little agitated. I told him the only way for the public perception to change was if agents were honest and woked hard for their clients. A while later he fired me. -g-
