It is not the agent's responsibility to know what repairs are needed! Really?

First Tweet:
My Response:
Her response:
Am I in the wrong here? Or, is it the responsibility of a listing agent to know these things?
I look forward to your feedback here, and if you feel like responding on Twitter, I've supplied links to the 3 tweets above.

IMHO agents are salespeople selling houses. They're not contractors nor inspectors. They might be able to point out obvious problems and might give ballpark figures as to costs, but that's not their responsibility.
