As a result, I receive complaints and harassing phone and email messages from other board members - in an attempt to discourage me from competing against them. The consumers love my services - but my piers despise and shun me. Even though I follow all the rules and laws of my trade - I am the one they think is in the wrong. Competition in the real estate industry is severely frowned upon - high commissions and business as usual is encouraged. H E L P !!!
