^ I agree realtors sometimes get a bad rap because they are thought to have conflicting interests but when it comes down to the actual commission they receive - the one they have to split 50/50 with their company after splitting it 50/50 with the other agent, it's not all that much of a $ difference so they would rather show that they can be trusted and helpful. They'd rather get the referrals down the road and get repeat business.
As for wifi advice since you brought it up - I'm not quite sure where I stand on the wireless router placement in the house. I have an office at one end of the house and so my dual band router is placed there. But the signal barely reaches the other end of the house. I've tried a repeater but the speed is cut in half to begin with. If you place it in the middle of your house but you have a lot of walls, it can drop the signal strength significantly also. I'm lucky the living room Roku even gets a signal but sometimes it buffers a lot which is frustrating. Someone also mentioned placing the router up in the attic and I see many people even do the basement - not sure why people would think both work.
