I GOT a call from someone wanting to purchase a property I have for sale!! That was what I thought, BUT....it's ironic why there is always a BUT to most aspects of life. This backend muscle that seems to butt into one’s targets......I got a call from an agent two weeks ago who said she would be sending over an offer to me on a house I was setting up to sale. Well, I said that is great and I informed her where to send it to since I have a personal fax number. I recommended for her to buzz my cell before sending it over so I can make sure I get it. This momentous day moved along with no word and the next day the same thing. Still Nothing...NADA...Zilch....YO!, my fax machine is working good, ya know? Mama mia! Que paso! Where is my offer! (sounding a little like Ricky Ricardo there. Lucy! Where aaaare you? j/k) Ok, I should not get my feathers ruffled.... (breathe slowly). I called the agent back at her office, on her cell phone, her son's phone (yes, she gave it to me so I was not doing any special detective work to get it, it's all legal). Still, there was amazingly no response. I found that to be rather strange....more like strangling if I might add... ? So, guess what I did? I moved ON! Well, Ms. Cupcake (see, if I'm annoyed by someone, I like to call them some kind of food) arrives again out of the blue and calls me on my cell phone! Hey, at least I didn't call her a Mango Coconut Creme Sprinkled Custard Ooohhh.... you don't want to be near me if that ever came out. So, she called me that afternoon to say she will be sending over an offer. Moi? Oui oui, merci beaucoup! (pardon moi...excusi mi French) Is anybody home? Did you fall off the face of the earth during the past two weeks? I asked her and she said that she was busy and couldn't call back earlier. Yet, you remembered to breathe all that time? That is one fantastic reason! So you are FREE now? Would you like tea with your cookie, Ms Cupcake? I didn't tell her that but that was what was going through my mind. I am hoping for this deal to come to fruition. I like to be positive about this and so I believe I WILL get that offer! If not, watch out Pinochio, you are in deep @$#%! as Ms. Cupcake may overtake you, her nose is growing faster than yours! So, until we meet again.... I have found it to be irritating when agents promise they will be sending over an offer and it NEVER happens. Have you had this experience before? Were you annoyed at this? All I want for Christmas and the New Year is you, you, and you (....that is, if you are bringing me an offer on my property :) If you ever find yourself in a situation like the above, from experience, It would make sense that you just move on and not work with this type of agent. Agents who do not have an idea of professionalism and the importance of following thru on what they say they will do are simply a waste of time. When they start off a flake, they will continue on as a flake throughout the transaction and you’ll just pull our whatever hair you have left. In the case of this agent, the transaction never closed out. She continued to spin those wonderful web of promises—just one right after another like long strings of spaghetti—and so it wasn’t worth my time to sit in her merry-go-round any longer. The homeowner of this home decided to hold onto it as a rental since the rents more than covered the expenses on the home
