I understand the frustration, especially living in FL where the housing bubble has hit the worst. It's not that they won't make a lot off of your home, but that they have so much backlog now, it's difficult for them to take on more and still give quality service. The larger companies, Remax, Century 21, etc are better at this as they usually have more staff, but still it's the times we live in.

I'd still recommend the ELP off of Ramsey's site as he guarantees of a sorts they will be the best.

I want to add that most RE companies make you sign a 6 month agreement. And a TON of them are finding that no matter who they sign up that time frame is getting harder and harder for them to meet. Where do you live btw? You could try buyowner, or similar sell your own type of program.
