When that listing agent allows and even
encourages other Realtors to be pushy about getting their buyer-clients in the

When an agent puts in the remarks of a listing
that the property cannot be shown until x date, they should abide by that

be pushy about getting their buyer-clients in the house before said date, I
think that is dishonest and unethical. I don’t work that way and this behavior
encourages the negative public light in which many Realtors are portrayed. We
are not serving the public by encouraging unethical behavior.
