I thought love letters were stupid also, not sure they needed to be banned though. When we bought and sold in 2019 I refused to write one and the ones I got didnt sway me at all. I prefer to let the offer do the talking.
I am pretty sure the National Association of Realtors has advice all realtors not to use the letters anymore. To many cases of discrimination coming about because of the letters.
I'm just curious why something like cover letters for job applications is still okay, but this isn't okay?
Love letters…. Lol didn’t write one for any of the homes i bought and me er got any for the two homes i sold. All from 2010 to current. it was asked by our realtor if we wanted to on the last home purchase in 2017, but i thought it was ridiculous in a market dictated by the dollar. It all seemed fake to me. Yep. Let the money do the talking.
This actually hurts the average person. I know If I was selling I would rather sell for 10k lower to a couple than some developer or place wanting to rent out the homes. Now, i would just take the biggest offer.
This agenda was pushed by folks with big bank accounts. aka the companies buying these homes up rather than the average consumer #richkeepgettingricher
Dear Mr and Mrs Homeowner, I love the way the light glistens off your upper round windows and the feel of your dark and firm basement. I just want to paint every room with my manliness as I explore your hidden secrets. Please, let me buy you! Love, @barfo
Obviously, if I was actually writing something like that, I wouldn't be mentioning all that other crap, only the basement. barfo
Seems like this would just hurt the average person trying to be creative in competing against big money. Interesting that concerns of ‘discrimination’ are being used to essentially fuck over the people actually being marginalized in this scenario, the poor and middle class.
yes, apparently it does happen from time to time, according to my realtor. I wrote a few as I was making offers six month ago. The 20k I was under the highest bidder was just too much for my ability to suck up.
My post before that one was It occurs to me: Why don't we write a love letter to Cleveland, so we can get Love for less than market value? (To make such enjoyable mind connections, you have to have taken LSD 50 years ago. It makes you smarter.)
