Real Estate Agent Needed a Niche in Slower Market

GrowhouseBut did this agent in Stockton, California really think that acting as a buyers agent for 7 homes that were turned into marijuana grow houses really help their career? I have heard of specialization in the real estate business, heck I think it makes a good deal of sense for an agent. However, when choosing to specialize, serving people that will use the homes for a criminal enterprise may not be the smartest idea for your future career.

The seven homes in the Spanos Park West subdivision and a nearby subdivision all sold within the past six months for an average of $600,000.

Investigators believe the discovery in Stockton is linked to similar operations found in the past few weeks in Sacramento and Elk Grove where 21 homes were raided. In those cases, one agent negotiated 20 of the 21 deals.

In the Stockton case, one agent who was selling homes remembered the buyers’ agent well. Nicole Truszkowski, an agent for Professional Realty in Stockton, said she worked with him on two sales and that he gave the impression San Francisco families would be moving into the homes. via The Record

  1. That’s freakin’ hilarious!

    BTW, Inman (Inman.com) is on CNN right now telling sellers to accept any offer they get… because of the “softening market.”
