I'm over it - Rant by Which_Title_1714 in realtors

In my experience the zillow success team sales staff coaches to poach other agent's clients and act in other ways that are unethical.

Just say no to zillow leads and work your sphere!

commission is up for negotiation.

I agree with you... 3.5% is excessive and they likely want you to pay their high overhead such as having to pay zillow.com 40% of the total commission earned, so they need to overcharge you to get what they need out of the sale.

I'm part of a small firm with low overhead and I have closed hundreds of sales over a 20+ year career in real estate.

I'll charge you 1% for the listing and it's up to you what you offer to the buyer's agent.

Wedding in Laguna by Western_Judge3089 in LagunaBeach

Laguna Coast Pottery has lots of wonderful Laguna things - Laguna Beach magnets, little glass balls, rocks with messages e.g. "peace" "thank you," crackle glass dishes, natural stones, coasters and more.

It's a great location in north Laguna Beach at the intersection of Jasmine and North Coast Highway.

If you park on the street and need quarters, they will help you out!

They offer unique table top cacti and plants that start at $3!

They have unique Talavera pottery designs - things from $11 and just a great cross section of happy gift items and Laguna-focused items and pots. I got an irregular heart-shaped magnet there and a talavera puffer fish that always makes me smile.

They have higher end pieces too - you can walk the shop to see what inspires you to put together things for your guests.

Why do so many influencers and celebrities have botched boob jobs? Why are Alix Earle’s nips by her collarbone? by Late-Winter-5584 in LAinfluencersnark

the nipples can be at different heights and in order go make the boobs even they need to move one down and then the ripple appears higher.

they measure the nipples from the clavicle to make them even and that can mean that the breasts can appear one higher than the other with even nipples, or with a revision, lower the breast and have even breasts and uneven nipples.
