Is it Ok if I stalk you?

da_norvegicus has finished his HSC, we'll be selling the Sydney house where he's living with his father. To start the ball rolling, I wrote to the 16 Real Estate agents within 5km of the house asking them for details of their fees and commissions for the sale. I didn't give the house address as I didn't want the lads disturbed, although I did say we'd bought in late 2004 for $X, so that the agents knew where they stood.
We have 8 large glossy envelopes with sales pitches now, most giving prices of nearby houses and a fair picture of prices in the area.
But one agent has obviously done his homework and doesn't mind us knowing, by including the Real Estate Institutes' file on OUR HOUSE, complete with the last 4 sales over the previous 15 years, the size and layout of the house, and a picture taken of it while we were living there (and probably at the time the front garden looked the best it ever had).
Should I be pleased that he's done his research and knows what he's doing, or should I be totally creeped out?
