We had one and only a few minutes notice, and we'd in recent times finished eating dinner, when the realtor showed up w/ a prospective buyer!

Call Tenant
Appointment
Day Sleeper
Power Off

Our MLS keyboxes also have time restrictions you can set & the keybox one and only functions during those hours. The agent should have call first & given maybe a span of an hour surrounded by which they might have shown up. Or I don`t know she was only in the nouns & saw the sign. It's common courtesy to call for first.
There will be a certain amount of inconvenience. If you are not contained by the home & can take the kids & be in motion for ice cream, the buyers can next feel more free to look in the region of.
Out of line. Lay the decree down. That's very rude on the realtors section! Apparently they think since you want to provide your house you don't deserve any courtesy and should jump through hoops for any prospective buyers. In this suitcase, I would sit right down on your couch and watch t.v. while they look around. I would also contribute the realtor a call and tolerate them know that you would appreciate more notice and more consideration. Good luck.
p.s.
They should be jump through hoops for you. The realtor wants that obese commision check and the buyers may be finding their dream home. =) Tell 'em how it is!
Make sure going forward that your r.e.agent is clear on when and how you want to show your house.
At first notice it would appear to be out of row but you never know.maybe the r.e. agent thought otherwise and didn't realize she would be interrupting dinner. At smallest she shows she's working for you...especially during these rough times for sellers.
This should own been handle with a simple word, "no". That's poor form that they didn't ask first, but the realtor probably wasn't expecting to show your house. Out of stripe only if the realtor know & didn't tell you. If you don't want this to ensue again, tell the realtor & set guidelines. (i.e. No smaller amount than 1 hr/3hr/24hr notice)
As far as laying low... if the houses is not contained by tip-top shape and you think that would impact the Dutch auction. Or you don't feel approaching showing the house (and don't mind turning away a potential buyer), then hold the realtor bring the buyers back after that. Explain that you are entertaining guests and now is a impossible time... etc. Think of something.
OUT of line. Is this your realtor, or a cooperating realtor? Did they try to beckon at all? If they call, you can always utter NO, or in an hour, we're consumption. I'd call my realtor and hand over them an earful. You WANT to sell your house, and that mechanism you need become aware of so you can tidy up and so you can make yourself scarce. This is unprofessional behavior and null. If it's your realtor, I'd cancel the address list agreement and get another.
Normally I'd sign out, but in these circumstances, I'd stay during the showing..
It is rude. HOWEVER, I'm guessing the realtor be asked to show the house on very short become aware of. Maybe they were driving by or another common sense.
If it were me, I would not be nutty. God, the realtor was doing their brief. And I'm wonder what questions would be asked if you found out that the buyers didn't buy your house because the realtor didn't want to show it on "short" see.
If I were trying to deal in my home, I would not care a bit if they give 5 minutes notice or come without concentration at all. First of adjectives, because I was trying to provide my house, it would be clean already. Second, what is rather interruption if I get what I requirement in the shutting. Third, it may have help the prespective buyers picture themselves relaxed and enjoying the house as you adjectives were. Fourth, you and the agent should hold had an agreement in the order of this before mitt. Was it really so bad?
