An excellent reminder of our responsibilities to owners of property we place on the market for a client

Via Barbara Todaro (RE/MAX Executive Realty in Franklin, Ma):

My team members are listing agents, and I continually market for listings.  Today I read a post by Nancy Tallman titled "Do You show Your Listings When a Buyers' Agent Is Too Busy to Show?"  This situation is common today and happens more often than it should.  However, as listing agents, we need to not lose focus on our job, and our goal is to make sure that homeowner is sitting at a closing table in the future.

We're not our sisters' keeper, so we're not responsible for the actions of irresponsible buyers' agents.  It's our responsibility to the seller to promote their home.  We never know when that winning showing is going to happen.  For us to hesitate when we get that phone call, may just create a question in that potential buyer's mind.  If one of my team members receives a call from a buyers' agent's client, we don't hesitate on making that appointment.  We want our listings to sell, and the only individual at a disadvantage is the buyer.  That buyer is free-wheeling with no representation. 

As listing agents, we are doing our job, and that's the only responsibility we have.  We represent the seller.

Karen, I have showed my listings and/or buyers have walked into our open house since their buyer agents where too busy. I do make a disclosure to the buyers that we represent the seller not YOU so any questions needs to be directed by their agent.
