Depends on where you're from.
Growing up in central Indiana in the '70s / '80s, a successful agent drove a Cadillac. Those with a little less $$, a Buick. When I went to school in Charleston, SC, the agents all drove MB, BMW, etc. never saw one in a Cadillac. Difference? In the midwest (esp. Indiana / Ohio / Michigan, etc.) in the '70s, if you were going to sell an expensive house there was a good chance it was going to be someone either in or associated with the US auto industry. No way you could risk showing them around in a 'foreign' car. In Charleston, nobody cared. Now living back in Indiana, I would say that a higher % of real estate agents drive a car from the Big 3 vs. the general population, but you do see the occasional one in a foreign car (or car from a foreign company). The auto industry is pretty much non-existant around here anymore (except for Honda & Toyota), but they probably still feel in necessary just in case. |
