syracusa,
And you wonder why some people get a little miffed at some of the things you write? Wow.
Anyway, we moved to Tennessee 5 years ago for work. We had no idea where we were going, what we were doing and had a weekend to find a home. We used an agent so that we could see multiple houses in one day. We did use the internet to locate some homes we wanted to see and she also used her knowledge toshow us other neighborhoods we didn't know about. Because we were with her, she was able to take us from home to home and set everything up. Had we not been with her, we would have had to call every agent and set up times, etc... That would have limited the number of homes we could possibly had seen. We ended up choosing a home that SHE found and we did not find on the internet. I am sure the seller was very happy that she brought a prospective buyer to their home who would not have originally looked at it.
Previous to this move, I owned a home in Ohio that the realtor knew was going to go on the market in a few weeks. Had I not used a realtor, how would I have known this. He called the people, I walked through it and we had a deal and the home never even hit the market.
