Now this is a new question!  I'd have to say when random untrained people advise a client and they take that person's idea over yours... and it kills the deal or harms the client in some (non physical) way.

Helping agents live an exceptional life!

Clients who won't take professional advice because they don't like the answer or because you don't agree with them. "Everyone gets their closing costs paid, my cousin told me to list for more than I want, my neighbor told me not to pay full price for a house..." and on and on. That's great if it makes you an expert, but then don't waste my time!

Rude customers or clients.  I know that is a subjective answer, because what I consider rude someone else might be fine with.  And, people that 'seem to know it all' is never a pleasant trait - HA! - Nik De
