Which demonstrates the unprofessionalism of the agent involved. When one party stoops to manhood-measuring contests, you can be sure their positions have some shaky foundations.

Whether a Realtor is required to, I don't know, but they should.

Oh, most assuredly, if my brother were thinking of moving to TV, I'd provide all the information I had to him. I would show him via TOTV that there were some folks who were panic stricken, fearful that there grandchildren would be forced to sell their GM and Chrysler stock to pay off the IRS. That there was much weeping and gnashing of teeth with clothes being torn asunder. But I would assure him that the sensible people were taking a more restrained approach, that there was no need to panic. I'd make sure he reread the articles from Janet Tutt and point out a few of the more rational posts on TOTV from folks like SteveZ and Kate.

Regardless of the IRS situation, I think it would be very valuable for any potential buyer to scan TOTV. It's important that he know that there are so many residents, potential residents, locals, and others who act like Chicken Little at the slightest provocation. And it's even more important that he know that there's a vocal group of Antis who claim to love TV but hate everything about the developer and live in fear that the Morse clan will sneak into their homes at night and steal their gold fillings. It doesn't matter the issue, be it a restaurant closing or non-resident using amenities, they will pitch a bitch and blame it all on developer greed. The Chicken Littles and the Antis can hurt property values as much or more than an IRS inquiry.
