Tried to view a house which looked really really lovely. Pattinsons told me that it was due to be auctioned, but the buyers might accept an offer in advance. This appears to be how they usually work, looking at other reviews. The house looked affordable, and I was really really keen. Now, could I get Pattinsons to arrange a viewing? To be fair, there was one viewing I had to cancel as I was stuck in traffic, but when trying to rearrange, I have never met a more obstructive agent. I was prepared to offer higher than the house eventually sold for if it was as good as it looked, but any attempt at rearranging a viewing was thwarted. It really felt like they couldn't be bothered. When I, as a potential customer, was told that they wouldn't open up a house twice in one day (company policy, apparently) I gave up. Shame - looked like a lovely house. I'm sure the vendors would have liked the 10k more I would have been able to spend, too.
What agent could do to change your mind?
Remember the prospective viewers really want to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds, some of which will come to you.
Remember you are acting for the vendors, and if you put off viewers, you will not be popular with vendors.
