Real Estate Agents and the MLS and Advertising...

I am looking to move and find that perfect new home.  Obviously nowadays you depend on a Professional by the name of Real Estate Agent / Broker.  But, not only do you have to figure out and understand who your agent is but also the sellers agent.  Today I am upset with an advertisement I noticed on Realtor.com. 

It goes like this: Brand New Townhome close to Las Olas Boulevard, just blocks away from the best Restaurants, Shopping, beach and night life for $2,200 [Rental].  So what do I do, I quickly call my real estate agent and have him set up an appointment and place a contract on it before I even have the chance to view the property.  Why do you ask, because typically these properties rent for approximately $4,000 per month.  Now I am all excited, later to find out that the ad was misleading, its a seasonal rental and its $2,200 per WEEK not per MONTH, even though in the ad it does not specify. 

Did the Realtor know what he was doing when placing the ad, definitely, but there is no one to monitor this, therefore, I went from excitement to anger and sadness.  Oh well, we live in a place where the Realtors are not only Realtors, but part time business people, car salesman, tile layers, landlords and many other professions.  Just imagine if the Doctor who is about to operate on you is also a landscaper, landlord, car salesman, but he is performing surgeries on a part time basis.  That obviously does not make sense and neither should a part time Real Estate Agent...

DEPEND:
To rely, especially for support or maintenance: Children must depend on their parents.
'BUYERS RELY ON THEIR REALTORS'
To place trust or confidence: You can depend on his honesty.
