we are listing agents, and we have never missed an accompanied showing....

if I were the buyer's agent, I'd leave a business card wedged in the door saying "I was here with my client to see your home".... I'm sorry to say we never saw it....your listing agent was a "no show!!!"

Good morning Fred. I just answered a question for Roger D. Mucci, that is something that would piss me off.

Fred Griffin happened to me once recently. Fortunately, owners had not left and were waiting for the listing agent to arrive, too.

Just knocked on the door and previewed the home. When we were about to leave, the listing agent arrives with a big 'sorry...'

No, but they've been late and I find having to accomodate another agent's schedule henders the sale of homes. 

I have had them be late, but never a no show.

It's not happened to me, thankfully, although there have been a few that were quite late, and 1 I recall who did not bother to call to let me know. I really prefer to not have to be accompanied - it just gets a bit complicated in many cases to coordinate appointments with busy agents

YES, LOL, in fact it just happened a few weeks back. The seller let us view anyway.

Another time, not only did an agent stand US up, she had scheduled HER buyers same time and stood THEM up too. She lost the listing and deservedly so. We bought thru another listing agent.

SO unprofessional!

Fred - Not yet, but I am sure it will happen at some point.

I think I would contact the agents broker and let them know that you were not only stood up, but you tried texting and calling and never received a response from the listing agent.

No. What a PITA ... looser agent. The agent better be in a coma or otherwise dead for blowing off an appointment like that.

No, accompanied showings are not that common in my market, thankfully.  Just as bad though are incorrect showing instructions, wrong lock box code, searching for a "hidden" lock box NOT where they claim it will be, etc.

 Good morning Fred Griffin . There are a lot of unprofessional people that call themselves professionals. You're probably working with a part timer who has part-time interest in this profession.

We don't have very many must be accompanied listings in our market. Does that also mean there was no way to enter the home? No keybox or lockbox?
