TigerwoodshomefloridaI am always in favor of real estate agents go the full measure to sell their clients homes. But there is a line between full measure and down right sleazy.

A real estate agent selling the home across the street from Tiger Woods on Jupiter Island has been reportedly contacting the tabloids as potential buyers. The thought of my agent selling my house so that someone else could be stalked and think that this is a reputable marketing strategy boggles the mind.

I could see marketing it that your neighbors include stars and celebrities, but not intentionally marketing it to the tabloids so they can infringe on a neighbor.

This sleazy behavior must drive other agents crazy as it really does impugn reputation of the profession.

TMZ got an unbelievable pitch from a big-time Florida realtor, and here it is, verbatim — “I have a FABULOUS piece of property for sale DIRECTLY across from Tiger Woods new property on Jupiter Island (Being built) When a tabloid pays JLO $6mil for photos of her first born, I would think that $4mil for a fabulous piece of property for unlimited photo opts of Tiger would be quite valuable!” via TMZ.com

    This is the type of practice that separate the men from the boys who are in this business. The boys have to grow up and learn the skills and level of professionalism the men have already acquired.
