When you get a compliment from a fellow agent, it is, indeed, gratifying. I just closed an escrow for my buyer/clients, Don and Margaret Wight, and the agent on the other side of the transaction sent me this very kind email yesterday (Sunday):

Ken,
I just wanted to thank you for being a great agent. We have closed many escrows both on the real estate and lending side, and you won’t believe the stuff that I see on my deals and my agents deals.
Thanks for making this deal happen! My door is always open if you ever need anything

The big takeaway here is that all Real Estate and Lending professionals are NOT created equal. Many, unfortunately, are not professionals at all. Amateurism and inexperience are everywhere so it pays to do your homework, check references and make sure you're choosing a truly experienced professional when it comes to something as important as buying or selling real estate.
