bernx,
If you saw what we see in the course of a 24 hour period on this board you might understand why we are concerned. If you would reread your original post you may have taken the same stance that I did. Now, with you furnishing further information, we find it is not you at all with the
property but your family and you are trying to help by soliciting anonymous advice on a forum. That's a big difference isn't it. When we don't have ALL the facts we have to judge on the face of it and compare it with the other "garbage" we get and have to delete (which normally is just deleted full stop without warning or apologies).
No offense meant, but keeping a board this size clean is a difficult job when all of us also hold down full time positions as well. Sometimes, we get it wrong. When that happens, the wronged person will come back just like you did. 99.9% of the time though we get it right. Sometimes some slip through the cracks because they didn't bother to read the FAQs & Stickies on the site. Or the bright orange banner above where you post your messages.
However, our hosts do not allow the recommending of real estate agents on this site. This is understandable as this site is one of their places of business. No different than you going into McDonalds' and trying to advertise Burger Kings on their premises. Or Driving your Ford over to the Chevy dealership and passing out brochures on Chevvies on their premises. It's their site, so we enforce their desires. Simple really.
