Okay I just do not understand why some listing agents can not follow their sellers instructions. This time it really cost me. My clients, who have a contract on a short sale in Prince William County Virginia and have lost out on another home because it went into foreclosure called me that they wanted to take a look at another short sale in Prince William County. I have no probem for our deadline has passed and no news from the bank.
I called the show contact and left a voicemail on the owners home phone that I was coming this afternoon, to call me back if that was a problem. I then called the listing agent, there was no mention of restricted times or appointment necessary in the MRIS. All she told me was just go and to "sell that puppy" .
My client and I got to the home and nobody was home. We entered the home and just were in the kitchen when the seller stormed through the garage door and started to let me an my client really have it in a very rued tone. Turns out she had instructed her agent that an appointment was necessary because of her daughters mental condition. With our cars being in the driveway and people in the house we could have caused her daughter to go back into shock and back to the mental ward at the hospital.
I just kept apologizing, that there were no special instructions except, show any time. My client after we got outside said that was very rued of her and wanted nothing else to to with the home.
I believe she had every right to respond the way she did.
