AGENTS; RETURN CALLS or PUT A LOCKBOX ON YOUR LISTING/S!

I'm mad as a wet hen! Yep, that's right, as a wet hen.  Can you imagine how mad a hen gets when she's wet?  That's me.

My complaint, which I've written about before, is about REALTORS/Agents who do NOT answer returning calltheir phones, or call back other fellow REALTORS/Agent. I don't get it!!!

When you take a listing, you are promising your seller/s that you will do everything you can, legally and ethically, to get their home shown and SOLD.  Well, if it doesn't get shown, the likely-hood of it being SOLD is fairly unlikely.

Yesterday, I printed out all the listings I will be previewing today for a showing I have on Sunday.  I read each and every REALTORS comments and showing "instructions." Several had "Call listing agent."  I did.

It's 19 hours later and I still haven't heard from two of the 10.  19 hours!!!!!!!   Did I mention 19 hours?

Now, some people say, "Well, maybe they prefer a text or email."  Fine. That's fine with me.  BUT if that is how you want to be contacted in order for me to show your listing/s, PUT THAT IN THE SHOWING INSTRUCTIONS!  Easy smeasy.

Ok, now I'm off to preview some homes that I have "access too."

Sellers: You might want to ask your REALTOR how good they are at communicating with other REALTORS.  Just a thought.
