What on earth is the value of cold-calling and asking if I'm interested in selling our house? Like are there really people who say "oh, yeah, I hadn't considered moving, but it turns out, random phone caller, yeah, I *am* interested in a major life upheaval!" Or do people move often enough that someone may actually get ahead of other brokers by doing this?

Or maybe there are enough people struggling that offering an out so the homeowner can move elsewhere and start a new life pays off?

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
