Picture this…
There's an inexperienced real estate agent in your town.
He hasn't sold any homes yet.
He wants to drum up some business.
So, he climbs up onto your roof and paints what he estimates to be the value of your home.
He feels like this could be a win-win:
YOU get to know the value of your house, so he was helpful to you, without even having to meet with him…
… and HE gets to show you how that he knows his stuff. Hopefully you'll turn to him for help once you want to sell your home.
But you're kind of ticked off, aren't you?
First off, this guy painted on your roof. That's just vandalism.
Beyond that, he wasn't even close to accurate! The value he painted up there is tens of thousands of dollars off.
You notice he did the same thing to all the other houses in the area.
He seems off on the value of all of them.
