One of our neighbors had their house on the market thru MLS, and during an open house they overheard a VLS agent telling his clients that if they liked this floorplan/house, he could sell them a new house for less. He was asked to leave immediately! The developer hates competition!
You're saying a VLS Agent took a buyer to a MLS open house?Find that hard to believe.

If I tell this story to someone..... would it be 3rd. or 4th. hand info.? I've lost count.
