I get idiot Real Estate Agents and Brokers offering to buy my place all the time. Not only do they offer half price, but they kindly offer to allow me to pay all closing costs and their commisions. If I'm really interesteed, they will pay with zero coupon bonds face value for face value. (Zero coupon bonds do not pay interest and only pay full price at maturity. They are sold at a discount.) When one shakes hands with these types it is necessary to count your fingers afterwards.
