    Dude thats just not fair.

    We need some kind of anecdote.

    Something.

    Okay I have one. Its pretty vanilla though.

    My best friend is house hunting. I am his agent and he likes to free-range it at open houses.

    He went to one the other day at a place we had looked at 2 weeks ago.

    The agent hosting asked him if he was brokered up.

    When he said that he was, the hosting agent kept saying “well I could represent you on this property”. I means seriously, this is not illegal and I am not sure that this is even something that rises to the level of board violation but Jesus that is rude. I mean aside from the ethical situation, it just makes our industry look more like Cal Worthington than we already do.

    BTW. As I write this I am sitting at my wife’s bedside in the hospital. She had our first kid last night. Addiction is a terrible thing.

    SD — do you care if i say what it was if i leave out the name of the listing agent and the property? i would not mind sharing so that others do not go what i just went through. i really hope karma kicks that listing agent’s ass. and if it was reportable behavior instead of just being an class a jerk, i would like to do that.

    Can I report them? Well no not really. In each case they were short sales and technically it does not appear that they violated any regulations. It is just more of a bummer for the clients. In each case the buyers have been searching for a long time and have been quite patient and diligent. In one case the listing agent strung us along for 2 months and the timelines with which the property went pending verses what she was telling me in phone conversations do not add up. Yet technically short sales are short sales and other offers can be submitted if there was not acceptance. It was the verbal stringing along that was quite discouraging. In both cases the brokerages are large well known “traditional” brokerages.
