[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, we had the same expereince! HATE the real estate agent, fired her over this. My daughter had a tooth extraction appointment. She called me during the appt to "ask permission" I said no way. She knew I was out of the house, so she used her key and showed them around anyway. Unbeknowst to us, the DCs had had a very happy bath (they were 3 years old) the night before and flooded the bathroom. Water everywhere. When I got home, water dripping from ceiling. Of course, no sale. We fired the agent.[/quote]

I would like an agent who violates clear instructions, but after reading your message I frankly think your agent was probably relieved she was fired.

what I understand from your message is that your 3 year old kids had a bath the night before and you did not even know about it (really great and safe parenting, congratulations) and apparently you did not even check the bathroom from that evening to the day after, when you do it only after the water comes dripping from the ceiling?

the reason you lost the sale is not your agent, but your behaving as an irresponsible parent, a lousy home owner and a lazy seller. if you are a smart and motivated seller,  you clean it up and declutter in the months before putting the house for sale, after putting it up for sale you  keep it in tip top condition and ready to show on a short notice with the least limitation possible (no showings after 8pm or earlier than 9am or whatever works for you, but considering that if buyers cannot see your home, they will  buy something else), and you will sell in a reasonable time. you can do that even if you have kids. BTDT. [/quote]
