In my travels around the country speaking to groups of loan officers, I always ask the question, "How many of you like real estate agents?" Guess what? It is rare, indeed, for a loan officer to raise his hand. I always follow up with, "How many of you have worked with an agent who you thought was a jerk but your borrower loved him?" Again, I almost always get unanimous agreement. For those of you who have never had the pleasure of working in real estate, it's difficult.
