Who in the Hell Would Ask a REALTOR® for Financial Advice?

This week, http://www.FinancialSurvivalRadio.com host Jay Carter wonders why anyone would depend on a real estate agent to offer financial advice about the whether one should purchase property. And why would someone depend on a person whose livelihood depends on SELLING REAL ESTATE to give an honest answer about whether home prices are going to crash? As Jay says, "asking a REALTOR® if it's time to buy a house is like asking a barber if it's time for a haircut."
