What sort of cars have you seen RE agents front up in?
One really interesting agent that we arranged to meet at a property for sale for a private inspection, very apologetically called up to say he was going to be running late because his car wouldn't start.....
Anyway, he turns up half an hour late, and we could see why - he was driving a clapped out old Volvo from the 70's.... and we rather quite liked the agent from there on.
Not to mention the fact when we got to his office to put in an offer, we couldn't see his desk for the piles of paper up to the ceiling - kind of reflected the condition of his car.
I was wondering if my deposit cheque would get lost somewhere - he must have too, becasue he went to staple it to the contract document, but then could not find his stapler. When he did, it wouldn't work.....
It was like watching a comedy show and in the end got a great deal too.
On the other end of the scale, had some brash, young agents driving brand new M3's and AMG's (with matching -prestige showroom agent offices) with whom we really didn't find it a true pleasure to do business with.
