He spoke with an accent and asked several questions about the house. When I called the number back a few days later, the party did not speak with an accent. I got suspicious, so I googled the phone number and found out he was a realtor! He did not identify himself as a realtor. Should I report this realtor to the Board of Realtors? I am also getting very tired of realtors who make cold calls to me, and no matter what company they are from, they all ask the same questions in the same exact order. What ... are they all provided a script? With all the properties listed in this horrible economy, why don't they spend their time more wisely getting out there and selling those homes in order to stimulate the economy instead of: 1. calling me and misrepresenting themselves; 2. making an unsolicited call to me. If I wanted their services, I would call them. I got a phone call a few weeks ago from someone I thought was interested in my house.

It's amazing how folks will put themselves out there with limited experience and maximized liability. I see similar behavior on Twitter. Folks just don't seem to understand that once you release a "Tweet," it becomes a searchable piece of the internet universe! Great post!
