In some cities, like San Francisco, you need to disclose in the sale of your home if anyone died in your house--even of natural causes.
Rediculious law? Something about Asian superstition? My grand mother died a natural death in here Richmond district home. The fancy realestate agent skipped through the house yelling, "You need to disclose the death!". I told my dad fine. We would have caught it eventually.
I did get his commission reduced 1 percent on the gleeful way he treats my father's/mine pain.
Why do realestate agents even exist anymore? 6-7 community college courses, and a easy test? I've never understood the need for them these days. A few years ago, the Realestae lobby got to Jerry Brown, and got him to sign a bill making it harder to become a Realestae broker. It exempted all the current cheerleaders who passed their broker's exam years ago.
What I found ironic, is the bill was presented to Arnold Schwartzeneger years ago, and he saw right through it. There was no problem with inexperienced brokers. The current brokers/cheerleaders just didn't want more competition, and wanted salespersons commissions.
That day I realized a good Republican is no different than a democrat.
