Well, the home buyers are not the only ones that are sick of it. We as reputable real estate agents are also sick of it. On one hand you wonder if the listing agent is incompetent and on the other hand you wonder if there is a game being played out.
Just last week, long time home buyers I have been working with called and said they wanted to see a house I had sent them on their email. After checking the MLS, the instructions were that the house was vacant and there was a lockbox.
Low and behold, it was in a gated community with no prior warning, no instructions with a gate code and once we all managed to get into the complex, there was no lockbox. The only thing true to this scenario was that it was indeed vacant. And not only vacant, but a door on the side left unlocked!
Wow, I would want to list my house with that agent! Even though it is a Short Sale, please let’s give the homeowner some respect!!
Can’t resist sharing this YouTube video that a friend of mine, Kris Berg who is a Realtor ® in San Diego published…I think you’ll find the sick humor in it, I know I did.
