| - RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL!
Very pushy, rude, and unprofessional behavior. Driving with a friend of mine who doesn't speak English. She saw a for rent sign, and is looking to move to a new home or apartment, so I called the agent listed on the sign.
No answer.
Called the office listed there, and explained that I had a friend/client who was interested in seeing the home and asked if I could have information on it. The man was very rude, told me to "call the agent, not me" and was extremely dismissive.
I informed him that I had called the agent already, and had received no answer, and this woman was interested in seeing the place today. The man started berating me about "checking the MLS" and whether or not I'm a licensed agent. (Uh, no, dumbass... That would be why I'm calling YOUR COMPANY, and not just looking at the place myself.), then hung up the phone.
Afterward, I *67 and called another number for the office. The same man answered, and I asked to speak to an office manager or person in charge to file a complaint. He recognized me and started berating me again. I pointed out to him that how dare he speak to a potential customer like that, and informed him that yes, he was the one I would be making the complaint against.
He interrupted me repeatedly and tried to act all pushy and threatening, and eventually I snapped that he needed to "learn some fucking manners". He told me he was the broker and there was no one I could complain to about him. I informed him I'd be filing a complaint with the board. He laughed and told me that he was friends with everyone on the board and nothing would be done.
A few minutes later, he called from a third number and started harassing me on my personal cell phone (he got the number from when I called initially), demanding to know who my "broker" is, etc.

With the real estate economy in the shambles that it is, there are plenty of agents and agencies out there who are willing to do the work, and be courteous and professional in the process. I suggest you find one, and let this company run itself into the ground.
