Jay, I have several buyers looking for foreclosure deals and an amazed at the number of “short sale” agents who do not even return calls. I guess they are so use to telling buyers “allow lender up to 30-days to respond” they think they can do the same. It’s frustrating when trying to validate which homes to show clients. On another vein, lenders do not always get the message when they have an opportunity to
stop a family from entering the foreclosure realm.

It’s amazing in today’s real estate market that someone would make the buyer work so hard to see a home. The Seller’s agent obviously didn’t tell the Seller how much this is hurting their chance of selling.

I glad the majority of homes in my market, Jacksonville Florida, are on lockboxes.

Sounds like you’ve been having a bad month with other Realtors Jay. I’m not convinced these guys are motivated sellers; I wonder why they even list the property - seems like a buyer would be irritated from having to work around such a tight schedule.

We could not view this property when my client was in town a few weeks ago because the available showing times are *not* noted in the listing. Even with two days notice I was unable to set up a different showing time.

It’s just amazing how common this scenario is… sometimes you have to wonder if people really want to sell their property at all.

How about Friday at 10 PM? Seems like common sense would dictate that such things are bad, but obviously that isn’t the case…..

Friday at 5:00? That’s very funny.

It sounds like this seller and agent were made for each other.
