How often do you call for showing instructions only to be told the agent will meet you at the property?
Personally, I hate showing homes like this. Many times these Realtors don`t allow the Buyer`s to look at a home, they`re too busy chatting about themselves.
I`ve been called rude by some agents asking them to "Just Show a Home",not sell themselves to our client.
Yesterday, while showing homes in Weston, I ran upon a "Comedy Duo" who should be honing in on their skills at the Improv,not people`s homes!This was the greatest comedy act i`ve seen in years.
It was fascinating watching this Dynamic "Husband and Wife" team talk to themselves, at each other and almost have a "Full Blown" fight in front of our client and myself!
The appointment was set for yesterday, we gave the Dynamic Duo 24 hours notice as they required to view the home.
Our client wants to purchase a home with a pool and golf course view. This home had it all!
The home we saw was drop dead gorgeous,the couple who showed the home were far from either!
They started by giving our client the 5th degree.
The conversation is as follows:
Dynamic Duo:As you can see this is a magnificent home! I do hope you can afford it!
Me: What are you doing?
Dynamic Duo: We`re making sure that whoever purchases this "FANTASTIC" home understands the seller isn`t "Giving this Home Away", now as we walk into the kitchen, you`ll notice the fine "Old World" craftsmanship on the mahogany cabinets! By the way, what do you do for a living?
Buyer: Excuse me! Why are you asking me this question?
Dynamic Duo: We need to insure that our seller knows everything about you when we call them. It`s part of the process. Take a look at the Hunter Douglas window treatments, they`re brand new. The seller went through "Great Lengths" to have them installed. I do hope you understand this home is for a person with refined taste.
Me: What? Are you two a comedy act? I`ve never heard questions like this being thrown out like this! How dare you?
Dynamic Duo: Look! If you don`t like how we show a home,than "LEAVE" we`re in the "Top 1% of all -----&&& Sales in the nation" we don`t have time to waste!
Buyer: I came from New York to purchase a home. I own my own Ad agency and we`re expanding down to Florida and South America.
Dynamic Duo:Well than, can you prove earnings? Let`s look at the master bedroom for a moment isn`t it "JUST SO DIVINE"?
I began staring at the Buyer.We both shot each other the same look, "IT WAS TIME TO VACATE" this home!
As we began to slowly walk away from the Dynamic Duo the wife starts yelling at her husband!
" I told you we shouldn`t have wasted our time today, I have a party to attend".
The Buyer looked at the wife and told her point blank" I wouldn`t buy this home from you two if it was the last damn house standing in all of Weston. I`ve never seen two morons like you in my entire life! How the heck do you two get by selling Real Estate?"
The wife, gave the buyer a very snotty look as she bum rushed us out the door. Her last words were still ringing in my ears this morning."I`m from Weston, I don`t have to listen to this nonsense"....
She`s absolutely right, I`m sure the seller is wondering what type of Realtors they hired, I know I would be!
