Actually most people DO trust them. I would eat my hat if 90% of people don't agree to sell their house at what the listing agent suggests.

Fair enough. Maybe I'm just the cynic. The real estate agent trying to sell my Mom's house came up with a dozen reasons on why it should sell for mid-300s. I did the analysis on the same data and came up with mid-400s. We'll see where it lands.

Ya. Usually what it comes down to is you need to wait. I bet your agents price would sell within a month.

I asked for a higher price on my house, and it took about 90 days to turn it over... was worth the wait though, say 15k more in my pocket.
