Life is about family, and I'd never begrudge anyone time off on Christmas, or even Christmas Eve - but today's only the 22nd. We're still writing offers and showing property - and having problems because many agents with homes "shown by appointment with agent only" and "agent must accompany" are nowhere to be found. The office phone, and agent cell phones have messages, we will reopen on Tuesday. Can't they take their cell phone on shopping trips? If they've gone out of town, isn't someone covering? Are we unreasonable to think that since we were still working today that others should be as well? Have their Sellers said, it's ok not to answer your calls or have someone else do it? It's ok - with 10,000 plus properties on the market, if one doesn't want to sell, lots of others due. You have to wonder, though, if the owners know their home is "unavailable".
Where Have All the Agents Gone?

Sharon ~ I know what you are talking about. It seems so many agents take the month of December off. We have been busy, well up until this week when we got dumped on... Before that we continue to find agents not answering the phones. What's up?
