The ones I've dealt with only want one thing, for the deal to go through so they can get paid. Even if it is a bad deal.
They didn't care if someone got screwed as long as they got their commission.

To think a realtor or agent actually has your best interests in mind is more often than not foolish IMO.
Why do you use realtors you don't like or even trust? Would you use a mechanic, contractor or lawyer you felt that way about?

Like any other business, there are good and bad. If you consistently get the bad ones, than maybe you should be more careful about who you deal with.
