 <\/p>\n

If the honeymoon with your real estate agent is over, chances are breaking up is hard to do. There is no excuse for poor customer service and you only need one reason to end it with your agen<\/strong>t.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here are 10 keys to help you get clear on whether or not you should be breaking up:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. They Don’t Return Your Calls<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If your realtor doesn’t return your calls then chances are they want to break up with you too. Go on, do it!<\/strong><\/p>\n

2. They Lied to You<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Hey, you’ve entrusted this agent with some of your most personal information not to mention one of your most valuable assets, your home. If they’re lying to you then they don’t deserve to stay in the relationship. Break up with that liar now!<\/strong><\/p>\n

3. They’re Cheating on You<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

You find out they are using your property to make another property look attractive. Break up with that cheater!<\/strong><\/p>\n

4. They Have Stolen From You<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Some unscrupulous agencies charge an inflated figure for advertising and marketing. If you compare the marketing costs with another agent’s you might find out you’re getting duped. Break up with that thief!<\/strong><\/p>\n

5. They’re Late<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If they’re late to meet you then they’re most probably late to meet buyers too. This doesn’t give people a good vibe when they get to your home and have to wait around for the agent. Time to break up. Later!<\/strong><\/p>\n

6. Aggressive Price Adjustments<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

They are aggressively pushing you to drop your price or take a low ball offer. Return the favor and drop him like he’s hot.<\/strong><\/p>\n

7. Poor Presentation<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

They show up to appointments in flip flops. Not OK. They\u00c2\u00a0should sell surfboards – not houses.<\/strong><\/p>\n

8. They Are Hitting on Your Significant Other<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Unless you want to break up with your significant other anyway it’s time to break up with your realtor.<\/strong><\/p>\n

9. Too Cool For Your Property<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Your agent fancies herself as a luxury specialist and infers that she has lowered her standards to help you to sell your basic piece of real estate. Give the listing to someone who is excited to sell it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

10. Too Busy<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Your agent has too many listings and just wants to get yours off the books fast. That definitely is not the way to assist you to get a high price. Ditch that busy body!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now you’ve got more than enough keys to help get back your keys.<\/strong><\/p>\n
