Agree ! Ours DID give us a VERY nice gift, not that we expected anything, but in previous moves to 3 other states, I must say the agent we had at each gave us very nice gifts for giving him/her the business. One was a $100 gift card to one of the area's best restaurants, another gave us an elaborate "welcome to your new home" flower arrangement from a local florist AND a gift basket of useful things for a new resident. The other agent (in Iowa) gave us a basket with a bottle of wine, cheeses, crackers, and a selection of $5 gift cards; Starbucks, Dunkin' D, subway, about 10 different cards all together.
