NO the realtor did not make any recommendation regarding the antennas at
my home. [See previous posts same subject]. The antennas were up and
operating until 1 week before the movers came and bank closing.

You are still making generalizations that are not factual. Please give
the name, city and circumstances of those realtors who say 'take them
down prior to sale'.

You persist in making generalizations that are not supported by facts.

I find that hard to believe. Do you really mean to say that a ham with 15
or 20 different antennas and two towers does *nothing* to the property
values of the houses next door?



That's what hams want you to believe. They are right of course. Lets say
your home is worth $175K before the tower. Then you try to sell your home.
You get no _offers_ because of that antenna field next door. Therefore you
cannot _prove_ that the value of your home went down. Hams are an elite
group of people like others. I find it hard to believe that a ham selling
their home would leave the antennas up while showing the home. Even if they
are going to toss them, any realtor is going to tell the person to take them
down.
