Jeez Danny,
What are trying to do, blow the poor realtors' deal? Don't you know a passive indoor air hydration system when you see one? Tisk-tisk.

I've never had a problem w/ a commercial realtor. They tend to be bigger pricks & definitely more sharklike, but they aren't into snowjobs. They tend to be obnoxious, but they are honestly obnoxious.
When one states the roof is in horrible condition, the commercial realtor doesn't (usually) dispute it. They may say "tough turds, price stays the same", but at least they don't drag in some roofer that fell off a turnip truck to say its fine.
They tend to know less than residential realtors, if that's possible, but are quite interested in investment value, which is where we come in.
Never had a problem w/ a commercial cretin wanting me to "be fair to the building".

How in the hell can they get themselves into the minus column like that .. without surgery?
The average residential realtor doesn't want to know; see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil..... While working hard to "not know", they manage to glean some tidbits of knowledge that they would never let on they know, unless of course, they are buying the house.
The average commercial realtor just doesn't care. When you start talking technical stuff, they literally don't hear it because it just doesn't show up on their radar. If something does stick, they tend to move to negotiations before they try to blow smoke over the whole mess. High pressure sales, but not necessarily dishonest. They know the #'s that have to be hit, & that is their target.
W/ the residential types, I've found that it's almost a game for them; if they can put one over on someone, they think it's smart & good business.
These are gross generalizations, that unfortuneately, I've found to be true in most cases.
