Can I fire my real estate agent?
By Ilyce Glink
Realtor’s unprofessionalism pushes buyer to breaking point
Q: I am a first-time buyer and because of my real estate agent, I am very stressed and frustrated. I’ve been looking for a house since October. I won’t go into detail about the horrible behavior of my agent, because it would take too long. I will just state some of the things that make me cry.
She is very hard to contact, in that she doesn’t respond in a timely manner. I always have to chase her down. I’ll e-mail her properties that I want to see and she tells me she will schedule them. But then I have to call her back to confirm and find out when the appointments are scheduled for.
I actually told her two months ago that I no longer wanted her to be my agent, but because she is very young in this business and a single mother with a daughter in college, I wanted to help her. But this weekend was the proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back.
