Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting. It’s always nice to hear the opinion of a Broker/Owner from another state.

As you point out concerning the agents experience.. I’ve never even heard of this Las Vegas Real estate agent in the first place.

Joel (the writer of the Time Magazine Article) obviously did some research on finding the least experienced Las Vegas real estate agent and using them to accomplish his goal…

Thank you so much for the kind review…

After analyzing the original article, I think the writer, Joel Stein should have done some fact checking before publishing that article.

I also think the particular focus should be on Time Magazine. Instead of our local association and newspapers focusing on the agent.. perhaps they should be doing some real investigating / analysis on the validity of the article to begin with.

As a short sale specialist and you teaching Las Vegas real estate agents on how to do short sales… we both recognized right away that this issue of Time Magazine / Time Article should be filed under Fiction.

I won’t consider you a “John Dillinger stealing from the banks” if you have to do a short sale…

Obviously… many Las Vegas Realtors have taken a 50% cut in pay since home values have dropped 50%+.

From what I have found out, the so called agent had not even finished her licensing course yet, was not a member of the National Association of Realtors and had only been with a broker for a short period of time.

New agents have a hard enough time trying to just find buyers and sellers to work with them, not sure how this new agent managed to get involved in what we all know is a scam and then managed to get herself national exposure.
