Will real estate agents stop being so greedy and annoying and cold calling/knocking/texting us to list our houses?

Can't speak for anyone else, but I do not cold call, text or door knock. I might send a mailing or a note to someone who has been in their house for X+ years in a particular neighborhood, but hopefully that's not terribly offensive.

I am not going to rag on my colleagues that do cold calling and door knocking, but it's not something I'm good at or comfortable doing, and I wouldn't want someone to do it to me. So I understand your comment. Fair.

I honestly don’t know any Realtors doing this and think they may be confusing Realtors with investors and wholesalers. Those people who call and text and ask if you’d consider selling your house are usually not Realtors.

Real estate agents are kind of dumb trash and I am one so no they probably won't stop. The market is slowing and they know business is going to dry up so they're doing everything they can to pad their sales pipeline. It's going to get worse before it gets better.
