We just don't sell houses

I couldn't help but comment on a remark made by a non-realtor on Trulia.com. He said that realtors only facilitate transactions. I guess if I didn't have the passion for the business, I might think that too. I imagine if I thought all real estate agents and companies were the same, I might think that's true. But it makes me think the same person might say a heart surgeon only works on hearts or a minister only reads sermons. A realtor, as I see it is your gateway to your new community, the one who relays the story of an area and delivers your new best friend.
