Re: 'Buying home under the influence' (May 25)

Dear Editor:

I had an appointment with buyers who brought one set of parents to see their first-choice home so far and to view a couple of others.

Your article hit the mark in both major areas -- they want to make sure their babies are taken care of and they want to make sure they are buying sensibly. Sometimes it makes the client dynamics weird, but I have always had great results and if the parents are local (or become local) I have enjoyed them as clients later on!

We did it with our son when he bought a home in Dallas -- and no, he learned nothing about real estate through living with us! We allowed that agent to do her job and teach him through the process.
