I like the idea of 'suggesting' someone on the forum, that way it's your choice to respond. But my experience on City-Data has been very negative as far as realtors go. City-Data has a very poor reputation in many circles because of it's realtors. The realtors on every city-data state forum are just as bad. They are like piranha's.

My advice to everyone - be careful. Take everything you read on these forums with a grain of salt. Cross reference. Try to remember that the people on City-Data are a poor respresentation of the real residents of an area. There are regulars on here and much of what they say is just their opinion. Even though they will make it sound like it is a fact, and even if they throw out a link or two; remember there will be a hundred other links to contradict what they are saying.

Just from reading this forum here one would think that if your children don't end up at Brentwood High School they will be drug addicted hoodlums. There is very little constructive criticism going on here, problems are ignored, each person has their own little area they represent and Realtors here will tell you what you want to hear.

Come on here to read, occassionally comment and read it as if it were the National Enquirer....
I'm sorry you were bombarded by DMs from realtors.

Lesson to everyone: if you do receive unsolicited messages from realtors (or any other businesses) you should report them immediately so that the offenders can be dealt with appropriately.

Thanks.
There are MANY more realtors here than people realize. They just don't comment in the forum or do and make biased statements about one area in general and pretend they are some school official or whatever.

I just make sure anyone who is relocating for my company (one of the largest in Brentwood) doesn't get sucked in here by the realtors.

You've been very kind in handling this manner. Thank you!
