I think they are called realtors!! ;-)

We just bought our place within the last year and a half. We had a very good
relater but it took me several times explaining to her I would not have any
place where there were HOA's or antenna or tower restriction. She thought I
mean something small. When she saw what I was running in Keizer with an 80 foot
tower and Steppir on top, hytower and various other antennas in the back and
side yard she began to get the idea. But it still took a bit more work to get
the idea of open ground with maybe a hilltop location, no major power lines
near my place, etc. It is always a compromise but where we settled is much
better than being in the city. And I have the largest tower I've ever owned
thanks to some luck and a little money. Still working setting it up but my
neighbors actually seam intrigued by my ham radio activity. By now the know I
take it seriously seeing me out there working on various things.
There are good relators and those that want to grab the money and run. I know,
I've seen them and walked away from some of them. Buying a home was one of the
most stressful things I ever went through but each time I sit out there on my
John Deere tractor or on my deck I know it was worth it. But it was sure like
biting nails to get through the process.
Teach a decent relator what you mean and it can pay off if they do care enough
to learn your wishes. Don't put up with one who won't.
I too am someone who should always proof read I know.

So the yagi on the roof will hurt your neighbor's kids, but won't hurt the
people in the house it is mounted on, who are 20-30 feet away from said
antenna? Bet you were laughing all the way to the bank on that one.

I have an interesting story; I moved QTH from the suburbs to one
in the
mountains. While building the new location, I kept the original
house but
ham radio fell silent due to all the work I was doing in the new
place. A
real estate agent representing potential buyers for a house behind
us was
concerned about my roof top yagi which I had left there. They
looked into
radiation issues and exposure to their young kids and were
concerned. They
asked me to take it down. It was not high on my priority so at
first I said
no. Then they offered me $5K to take it down on their closing of
the house.
At that point I said okay and spent an hour taking it down. Of
course the
$5k went back into ham radio.

After that "comment" I feel the need
to chime in.
I must be lucky, the last three houses
I bought (2 in MA, 1 in AZ), could not
have been better. The Realtors were
quite truthful and helpful in each
transaction.
But then, perhaps the Laws and Realtor
Associations may be more ethical in
those two states.

truthful about anything. Thats based on buying and selling 3
homes and
one condo...and
hearing the horror stories from friends and work place
cohorts. A local
ham has a 150
ft rotating tower on his aprx .7 acre city lot. There used to
be 5-8
acres of empty fields
behind him for 25 years. The acerage gets developed into a ton
of very
expensive
new homes and several new streets. When prospective clients
looked at
any of the
homes in the brand new subdivision, they were ALL told by
EVERY real
estate
agent here in town, and we have 1450 of em.... that tower mess
? Oh,
dont worry
about that, its all coming down in a few months. Well its
still up and
running 20 years later.
By daughter got screwed over twice by real estate agents. I
know
several real estate agents
personally, and a few owners of real estate business,s. They
all have the
same attitude. Lie
through your teeth, and collect the commission.
