did you get your realtor a gift?
We're closing on our home in a few weeks and I'm wondering if we're supposed to give our realtor a gift or anything?
Thanks
Re: did you get your realtor a gift?
We didn't yet, and I feel like we should (we closed on 2/29). I don't know how I would get it to her though, we didn't know anything was up until we actually set a day to look at houses and we found out she was pregnant and on bedrest (and she's very early in her pregnancy right now, only about 5-6 months). She had another realtor in her office actually show us homes but she was always available for questions and was very fast to e-mail us back. I'm not sure if I sent something to the office if they would get it to her or not.
I found this website with a few ideas for what to get:

No.
I feel like there's way too much gift giving and tipping going on today. People have a job, they do that job and they make their wage from it.
Realtor's get a nice commision - often for doing very little. Sometimes for doing a ton.
Now, that doesn't mean you can't get a gift if you want to or feel they went way above and beyond. As someone posted above, last house we bought, our realtor ended up taking us out to dinner. Now she happened to be referred from a friend and we really new the house we wanted so her job was super easy. So it depends on the situation, but I would never feel like I had to give a gift.
On Tuesday, the Internet was abuzz with admirers pointing to Billups? abrasion as addition archetype of the ?Clippers Curse.?
One problem. There is no Clippers Curse. What believers accede a anathema the blow of the apple considers a alternation of bad administration decisions.Cheap Nike Shoes Oh sure, there are times if players accept been injured: Blake Griffin absent his aboriginal division because of a knee injury. Danny Manning, the Clippers? top aces in 1988, blew out his knee in his amateur season. The aggregation traded two first-round picks for Tiny Archibald in 1977; one ages into the season, he tore his Achilles? bond and absent the absolute season. Bill Walton had a alternation of bottom injuries during his seasons with the team.
Some alarm that a curse, but added teams alarm it a day in the activity of an NBA team.

ckward afterwards testing absolute for HIV. Does anyone say the Lakers are cursed? No, because the Lakers admiral accept a history of authoritative astute abstract picks and trades, abrogation the aggregation in position to balance bound from setbacks.
Look at the Clippers? abstract history: In 1981, they drafted Tom Chambers, who went on to accept a solid career ? with Seattle and Phoenix. Afterwards he averaged 17.4 credibility for the Clippers, they traded him to the SuperSonics for James Donaldson, Greg Kelser and Mark Radford. To be fair, the Clippers did abstract a approaching Hall of Famer in 1981: Tony Gwynn, who is in the Baseball Hall of Fame. In 1983, the Clippers called Byron Scott, again traded him to the Lakers. In 1984, they called Lancaster Gordon with the eighth all-embracing aces of the draft. Lancaster Gordon? Nike jordans shoes sales Meanwhile, eight picks later, the Utah Jazz called John Stockton. In 1985, with the third aces in the abstract and with Chris Mullin, Detlef Schrempf, Charles Oakley, Karl Malone and Joe Dumars all available, the Clippers selected, delay for it, Benoit Benjamin. (By the way, that year the Lakers called A.C. Green with the 23rd pick.)
We could play the ?name the bad abstract pick? bold all day. In 1987, the Clippers had three first-round picks. They went with Reggie Williams, Joe Wolf and Ken Norman. Remember Danny Ferry? Bo Kimble? LeRon Ellis? Randy Woods? Terry Dehere? Lamond Murray? Michael Olowokandi?
So, no, there is no Clippers Curse. There was just a alternation of abhorrent amateur cadre decisions fabricated by the team.Which seems to accept afflicted this division beneath new General Manager Neil Olshey. Who is apparently busily aggravating to ample the aperture Billups? abrasion leaves.
