You did have a pretty spectacular real estate agent didn't you.

What gets me with these articles bemoaning Real Estate Agents, is that there are a million and one agents out there and if you get a crappy one, you have only yourself to blame. If you meet with an agent and don't get the warm fuzzies, find another one. If you get the vibe that they're shady, then they probably are, move on and find an agent who isn't. Easy peasy.
