Doing The Right Thing with Professional Athletes Realty Rant

    • Home & Garden

As Realtors and Brokers, we really need to get hold of ourselves when working with professional athletes. In our excitement to work with them, lets not forget that we are giving them advise on homes. If you know this is a lower or mid range player, think about putting them into a rental and not selling them a house. You know they could get cut from the team at any moment. Unless they are paying CASH, stop with the nonsence. Our code of ethics says we must do what is in the best interest of the client. Many of those players are KIDs right out of college who need our guidance. As Spike Lee would say..... DO THE RIGHT THING.
