Lazy realtors?

Now that's a bummer - and the homeowners will probably never know. On my way home from work on Tuesday AM, I noticed a house for sale that I was VERY interested in. I came home and immediately found it on MLS listings, and fired off an e-mail to the realtor. I checked my e-mail all day, hoping to hear back so we could go see the house... never heard from him. Next day, gave benefit of the doubt that maybe he didn't check his e-mail, and thought to call him, but wasn't home at all during the day, and I wanted to be respectful of evening hours. Today, I was preparing to send him a follow up note, in the hopes that maybe there would be an open house this weekend, when I refreshed the listing (10 minutes after initially rechecking to see if it had sold, or some such thing), only to find it NOW listed as "Pending". He never contacted me, I assume, because he already had an offer... I do wish that the homeowners could know that John W. King, of Alhouse King Realty, didn't follow up on all the nibbles on their home.

I hope he got them a great deal.
