I often come across dangerous pseudo knowledge among the realtors that are responsible to market a development property. I’ve theorized in the past that the realtors like to cultivate a persona of expertise but ride a thin line which is a suit of protective ‘accountability’ armour. Also, being able to plead ignorance of important details provides a waiver to relieve themselves of responsibility for misrepresentation in this profession, unlike virtually all others. The maddening lack of accountability for published errors is quite amusing at times, but would be less so for the buyer that is misled by the sweet talking salesperson. Do your own diligence is the second response upon being called out for publishing factual errors to embellish a listing. I don’t see that disclaimer here. Perhaps each listing should contain an asterisk that says warning the information above contains some or more elements of bullshit.
Blatant error here. A serious misrepresentation is published on the mls. Who polices this? Nobody. Who’s responsible for erroneous development advice? Nobody.
