We stopped using a showing service and the office years ago. If you want to see my listing, you call me.

Can they transfer the phones to an agent? That might help!

In the Las Vegas market, buyer's agents schedule showings directly with the occupant or listing agent depending on the instructions in the MLS. If an agent wants to show a property bad enough, they'll find a way whether or not there's someone to schedule an appointment. Let the staff enjoy the weekend and come back energized for summer.

Hi Debbie -- was it announced prior to Saturday's closing? If not, I would think a discussion should take place. If it was discussed - you should have adapted.
That's the reason why many agents even in offices with receptionists choose a showing service or have selling agents contact the listing agent or seller directly. With proper planning, it doesn't have to be a disaster.
For me -- I want any communication with a seller to come from me so I want to coordinate showings for my listings.

Perhaps you can have the showing telephone number forwarded to your number? Just think of the leads you may get!!!!!

Agents can temporarily change the MLS listing to have calls come to them over the holiday weekend. It does not seem unreasonable for paid staff to get a holiday off work. The one/two day inconvenience is not such a big deal.

I wouldn't have appreciated this Debbie. At the least possibly offer to let some agents staff the office to handle calls and possibly some new business.

We use a national showing service which works virtually 24/7 so it's not an issue for us. Our office is open only until 5pm and not on weekends, ever. As we are in an office building we really don't get walk-in traffic. But in your case, I'd probably not complain but offer suggestions for future such weekends on how to staff the office.

Debbie Reynolds The broker should have had a back up plan to handle these calls.

When the public is off, is when we are the busiest. I use a showing service as well as a receptionist. I worked a full day yesterday, working just this morning and am taking the afternoon and evening off. But come Monday, ill be back ready to sell.

Your broker dropped the ball.
Let your broker understand 'you're not feel'n the love' when unilateral decisions such as this will have gigantic financial consequences for the agents.
The advise your BH broker that REMAX is looking better everyday.

I am sure some sellers will be annoyed . I am sure most offices are closed on Monday.

That doesn't sound like a good system. Most agents here have their cell# and home# listed with MRIS, and also have their Cell# on yard signs.

Debbie Reynolds - now that's little tricky!
Our market center uses third party services for scheduling - so it is working fine.
If that's what the broker has decided, I don't know if you want to complain about it.

I'm surprised the Broker didn't have a system in place for the agents to get calls and answer them.

I would bring up the issue with your broker. Holiday weekends are hot times for showings.

I think maybe a showing service may be in order if this happens again. I almost missed 4 showings on my listings and that is not good for my sellers.

Get your own showing company...Showing Time or Centralized Showing...better feedback and more reliable.

No why would one complain about taking a few days off. Set up your own appointments

As a small broker we have everyone on a Google number that rings us all, that way we don't miss calls. I would gauge my answer on what the broker charges me in that situation. Does the value proposition of that brokerage require a receptionist?

This drives me nuts. I see brokers all the time that fit the schedule to their needs vs the publics.

Is it possible for you to schedule your own? Might work if it's just this one day. In my experience, during a holiday week-end there are more tire-kickers than real buyers, but one never knows...

Your office should be open this weekend. Your manager has some lessons to learn.
In our market, most of the agents use a showing service and do not rely on office assistance to schedule appointments.

You complaint would probably fall on deaf hears. We use a company (Centralized Showing Service) who schedules all our showings. I would change instructions in mls for the agent to call me for a showing.
