Ah yes, more name calling, and hardly would I consider myself a Mogul... I would be going on just as much if it was about pet owners and people denying that smells and things affect the saleability of a home!

Just fixed up a house that absolutely REAKED of dog urine, previous owners owned 2 big dogs, and just locked em in the house while they would leave town for days at a time... was joyous time getting rid of the carpet, replacing the bad flooring and sealing it all up!

I have never cared whether you smoke or don't smoke in your house. Denying however that it doesn't impact a houses ability to sell is false.

Like I stated before, you think used car salesmen detail their new inventory and spray it with new car scent because they want to spend that money? Hell no, they know that a car sporting the nicotine/tar film and smelling of cigarettes won't sell as quickly or for as much as a clean fresh smelling car. Dirt and smell detract from ANY commodity for sale, period. Whether that smell be coming from smoke, pet urine, or sewage backup.

As to being corrupt, well keep up the name calling, it suits you, it really does, you wear it well.

So lets see, how am I corrupt, I buy beat up old delapidated properties, that are largely bringing down property values around them, I fix them up, (employing various contractors, purchasing hardware and products, providing income for numberous companies) bringing them back to great repair, raising the property values of the neighborhood and sell them to a new owner to live in and raise his family in, returning what is often a dead asset to the tax rolls which provides more revenue for the community, improving property values of the entire area raising the neighbors resale values.. and I get thanked by the people I sell the homes to, and the neighbors who are glad to see that beat up old problem house being fixed up, provide revenue for dozens of companies that helps them employ workers....

Yea, I am just one corrupt SOB... Damn, someone put me in JAIL... how dare I actually do things to improve a neighborhood and lives of a family wanting a home? Someone please put me away!! Stop me before I provide another family with decent affordable and safe housing to raise their kids in.

Save your crabs in the bucket, class envy mentality for DU.. its got no place here.

You seem to have a bit of a problem with your reading comprehension.

I only commented on corrupt real estate agents in Delaware, a state you claimed to not have any real estate dealings. Who has the problem here?

I don't keep my crabs in a bucket - I try my best to cook them as soon as I get them, they taste better.

Get over yourself. And start paying attention to what people say to you - even if they have a differing opinion.

When the next FReepathon starts I will remember you think I belong at DU, every hour that I am working to keep FR going.
