This is a true story.
A listing was being shown by a co-broke. This was an un-accompanied showing…meaning No Listing Agent was present. As the co-broke was finishing the showing, a man pulled up and said “Thank God, I locked myself out of the house and I did not know how I was going to get back in. Boy am I glad I caught you… I thought I was going to have to break in!”
What would you do in this case? This house has a for sale sign on it and agents are coming and going. There is a visual tour on line, so a good thief can easily case the place and know what the inside is like. A good thief can also have a full crew with a moving van ready and the house would have been cleaned out in minutes! This day and age the neighbors would have thought nothing of a seeing a moving van.
The Co-broke….She let him in and left.
