[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the input. Next time I am definitely using Redfin.

My buyers agent thinks I have a case. She said she always reviews offers with clients, never pushes them to sign, and thought it ridiculous that we had to do so much work to sell a very easy to sell house. We actually thought we might get multiple offers, but agent pushed us to sign right away saying buyers will probably walk and we will not get any better. My buyers agent said she would have recommended an escalation clause and that seller agent was not looking out for our interests, only her own.

Although she didn't force us to say home to let people see the house, she said just tell them to wait until afternoon when lock box would be on. (We had to do our own scheduling as well. Agents contacted me directly for scheduling, so I had to keep up with that as well. I felt like I was doing a FSBO.)

It's not just that I want some kind of compensation for this for having to do her job for her, but that I don't trust her to represent us going forward.

I wouldn't take your buyers agent's opinion too seriously. It is a cut throat business and I have noticed realtors have a tendency to trash talk their competitors. Take it with a grain of salt.[/quote]

This. I think less of your buyer's agent. Also, if you wanted to wait for multiple offers, you could have. Your selling agent gave you advice that you didn't agree with. It's on you that you took it. In terms of the scheduling, I agree that is not right but you should have nipped that in the bud with your agent right away. But agree with the pp's that none of this rises to negligence and may just be the way that your selling agent operates. She may think it is more convenient for her sellers to schedule on their own.[/quote]
