Other Agent:
I did not pursue your listing. Your seller called me. I want you to know that I told her I could not speak to her until she terminated your contract.
Yes, I removed the keys from the lockbox. Why? The seller seems to think that you have been LIVING in her house! She left a month ago. When she got there Sunday, she said the toilets were horrible, coffee grinds were in the sink, and someone had been cooking on her stove. The neighbors told her that you car is there late at night.
>Do not call me and accuse me of being in violation of MLS rules. The keys were removed only after I recieved written authorization from the sellers. I understand that you have expressed interest in buying the house. You beg the seller to reduce every chance that you get......could you have a motive?
>I was nice to you on the phone yesterday. Yes, I find it very ironic that the day the termination was signed someone is dying to see the house. It is my understanding that she is bringing her husband to look next week.
>Now I am always fair, if you would have given me either the name of the agent or the buyer, I would have made an exlcusion on my contract. You wanted the listing for another two weeks so that you could work the deal.
>But you tell me that I am in violation of MLS rules? I play fair. That was a low blow. Please talk to your Broker in Charge. My listing agreement was faxed to the seller on Monday. After, I recieved a fax with you termination of contract. It was dated for Friday. But the sellers wanted it back on the market yesterday. I will be glad to give you a copy of the listing.
>You may not ask for my advice but I will give it to you. Compensation of the selling agent is key to getting people in the door. If you choose to lower your commission, lower the listing side. The excess of inventory probably got your listing passed up.
>Oh by the way, we are offering a $2,000 Bonus to the buyers agent through the end of the month. I would love to work something out with you!
>I wish you the best in the future. Also, thank you for attending my brokers open house yesterday! I appreciate your feedback. I am so glad that you and your coworkers enjoyed my food. One question that I am dying to know: Did you attend before or after you left my listing coordinator that message?
