Toronto Agents who don't care

For them its all about the money.

Get the papers signed and then forget about their client, the other Agent, or the poor sot on the other end.

Especially when it comes to Leases.

Most Agents won't touch leases with a barge pole. Too much work for too little pay.

Thats what they think anyway. As a result, most Agents who do do them are those that either really need the money, need a listing, or like me - doing it because it helps people out who are in need of a place to live. Or better yet, because I'm a professional who doesn't turn down work simply because it won't earn me thousands for a few days work.

Will blog more on this later but there is one particular Brokerage in Toronto who give slimey new definition. Twice now one of their Agents has hung up on me when I DARED ask a question that should have been on the Listing in the first place. Thats 2 different Agents from the same office. Simply because they were either too busy or too lazy to look up the information that they are responsible for providing. One of them didn't even call me after the deadline for our offer had expired - to tell me that they were mulling it over, needed more time or even that they'd rejected it. Is this part of a new training program?

This latest hang up after waiting 2 days for them to return my page, and fax as a backup.

Once the paperwork is signed they're off chasing the $$ and could care less about servicing their clients interests.

Totally unprofessional.

The industry is awash with them my friends.
