You mean RE Agents are not all honest? I am shocked, tell me this isn't so.

Why would a non-member tell us something that we already know? If you have a problem with agents, tell the NAR and your local media. See if you get results.

Arturo from tarbell realtors suckered the buyers into believing his story that is fine i can live with this i would not be able to live if for lieing some baby got drowned in a family pool, i been an inspector for over 13 years and over 15 in the construction industry hands on also i do home inspections on the side its not my full time job i build modular school buildings and commercial for DSA/DOH See ya Jose the Inspector

I find his statement hard to believe. I can't imagine a used house commissioned sales person lying.
