They said: “SMAR works directly with elected officials to find common sense solutions, while maintaining strong support for the real estate industry and all property owners.”
I doubt that I’ve seen any of their “common sense solutions” here but I DO know that I’ve seen what the 5 Charles County clown’s “solutions” have done to my property taxes and other costs I’ve incurred!
Look at all those candidates in the pockets of high density housing developers. Yup. Now, you know who NOT to vote for.
Thanks, this made voting much easier by decreasing the list of possibles.
it good that competition has come to house selling & you no longer have to pay a 5% commission to realtors.
