Part-Time Michigan Real Estate Agents

To those part-timers offering their opinions of real estate values, STOP IT! You are not familiar with the market just yet. You create conversation by telling innoscent victims that their homes are worth 50% above market value. Boy, do they appreciate your thoughts and really think you know what you're talking about. Guess what, you are doing is destroying the local real estate economy and stagnated the market. Do you realize these people take it to heart when you tell them their home in town is appreciated just like vacant land and waterfront property? Do you realize that each year the average northern Michigan home owner sits on their listed home that doesn't sell costs them over $8,000 per year in taxes, interest, insurance, maintenance etc. Full-time agents who take overpriced listings are even more guilty of such immoral practices. You actually know better! For more of my northern Michigan property opinions, view my northern Michigan listings here. - Jamie Gwilliam
