[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am using an agent. We get automatic feedback when it is linked through showings.com [/quote]

You have a lazy agent.  Again the agent should be reading the feedback and responding.  This is the problem with automating a process.  Great misinterpretation occurs.  Your question to your agent should be "how did you respond to this feedback?"   You are paying an agent very well to be involved in the process, not to evade work.   Incidentally, I am an agent and would never let a seller be slammed with this raw feedback.  It is like agents who set up automatic searches for people who then get flooded with info on houses because they are in a price range but not what they want.

When people on this board criticize agents, it is for this very reason.  If the public dislikes lazy agents, imagine trying to work with them[/quote]

if I missed a house in my target area, in my price range because my agent didn't forward it you me,[b] there would be hell to pay[/b].

No, there wouldn't.[/quote]

Actually, if it caused someone to drop their agent, it would.  Bad word of mouth hurts agents as much as good word of mouth.  I worked with a really difficult local agent selling a previous home - whenever someone asks me for a rec - I direct them away from her.  [/quote]
