We started with a VLS agent and told her we were only interested in homes north of 466. She proceeded to show us three new homes south of 44 "so we could see what the difference was." Finally we said we really want north of 466. She then showed us 4 homes that were total dumps. Smelled bad, had dirty insides, stuff like clothes left in closets, trash in garages, landscape not kept up. It didn't take long before we figured out what was happening. She was picking the worst of the worst north of 466 to show us like we just got off the turnip truck. We ditched her and started looking on our own. We immediately saw lots of really nice homes, and made an offer on one that we're still in that was being sold by an MLS agent. That was 13 years ago.
