Looking for a home, don’t like my real estate agent, what do I do
lender asked if I was working with a real estate agent. I wasn’t so he suggested one to me since this is all new to me and let me tell you… She is the WORST
At first she was actively texting calling me and sending me houses, I am specific with wanting at least 1.5 bathroom and 3 bedrooms. She is constantly sending me houses with one bathroom… it’s like she doesn’t even try to look with filter of minimum 1.5 bathroom. So I started sending her ones I like from Zillow. I think I’ve looked at about 20-30 houses so far and they have all been stuff I found on Zillow that she scheduled or if they have “open house” listed.. she tells me to go to them. I’ve put in 4 bids so far but we keep getting out bided since summer market has been crazy. She doesn’t even give us suggestions on how to look more appealing to the seller other than just bidding crazy high.
Last week it was raining and there wasn’t any houses I had sent in a while because it was a dry week on the market and she has the nerve to ask me if I’ve been looking like… ISNT THAT YOUR JOB. Then she proceeds to send me crappy houses that again doesn’t fit my non negotiables…
This weekend has been busy, I told her I was going to two open houses Saturday and two on Sunday and then we had one scheduled with her at 1pm Sunday since there wasn’t an open house. She texts me Saturday how’d they go, I told her I really liked one and she asked if I wanted to put a bid…. As if I wasn’t also going to look Sunday. i didn’t even bother texting her back because I wanted to see houses next day and if I liked over the one I saw Saturday, I’d put a bid on it. So now it’s Sunday, I go to two open houses and at 12:30 she texts me saying there’s an emergency so if I can reschedule our 1:00 showing to 5:30 that day. Don’t get me wrong I’m very patient and know stuff randomly happens, but this on top of all the other crap. I’m so over her
My contract expires on Halloween. Should I even bother looking at more houses with her, I feel like I should wait until I can find a new real estate agent…
