No Gabe, that would be terribly stupid on their part. I bet they are newbies that were told to go find listings from buyers not using the MLS. Hate that!

Wow! That hasn't happend to me Gabe Sanders !  Although in the past I have noticed listings in z that were not in the mls.  It was claimed to be pre-foreclosure of some sort.  It was a company selling their listings for a monthly fee to buyers.  Sometimes I got a phone call, a buyer who found this home to be really cheap from z and I looked into it further it was a listing from them. I just can't remember the name.  I also heard that many of the listings were not real listings. So it's like a wild goose chase.

Maybe if she knew how to do her job you wouldn't have to tell her how to do her job. In fact, maybe all these agents that do not know any better should just go find another job and leave this job to the professionals!

I haven't personally had that issue, however, one of the agents here in the office had it happen twice in the same week... (last week)

I'm curious if the person on the other end of your phone line really was a Realtor or not...

Yes & moreso from buyers than from Agents (although Agents do too sometimes)

This happens to me all the time & it's because our name & # were in Zillow's remarks when we had the listing "X" number of years ago. Zillow doesn't remove it so I get calls on this house that isn't even for sale. I don't mind too much, I just try & sell them something that is available.

Yes we do get calls like these. It's usually someone that searches on our website and then tells the agent about it and tells them that we are in the listing agent or else prints off the listing from our website which shows are contact info. I have no idea why these agents don't check the MLS listing first before calling. -Kasey

Yes. i got a call yesterday from a lady wanting to look at a rental in Maryland. It wasn't my listing, or anyone;s in our office. Not sure why she called me? In that case, it wasn't an agent calling. Other times, agents did call about listing that weren't mine, but after talking with them, we usually figured out that the agent just mixed up agents phones #s and listings.

yes it happens but never had an agent cop an attitude when you were trying to help get her back on path. sounds like someone (like her Broker) ought to be telling her how to do her job because she is clearly clueless.
