@@RandiWalker-p2g out of curiosity, are you licensed? the person that refuses to identify themselves walking through a strangers house - oftentimes a very private space for people - I assume that is acceptable to you and not of concern? I’d be very concerned about this as a seller. If I couldn’t tell you who came through your personal home and you notice that items are missing or broken, would you want an agent that protects their sellers and can assist an investigation or somebody that just let people come in and do whatever? And in addition, the paperwork we require is simply stating that we do not represent the person walking in the door but work for the seller. So really there shouldn’t be an issue acknowledging this if the person is a serious buyer who is legitimate and well, not a fraud themselves 🤷♀️
@@Alas-xj8crthan there are other options to discuss with the person such as an mls sheet or a link of a public video walkthroufh - paperwork is only scary if people don’t understand it or want to ask questions. Any apartment complex gives the exact same form to future residents before touring them through in the state I’m located in. People don’t complain about them there so I don’t know why this would cause an issue in your eyes here
@@Alas-xj8cr our paperwork does not state you contract me - the opposite actually. It states we do not represent you but are here on the behalf of the seller. if agents were to actually do their job right (and you as a consumer would want someone that ‘gets contract law’) at least in Illinois, you could potentially sign up to 20 forms if you wanted to see 20 open houses - remember all states have still some of their own requirements but states with ‘presumed agency’ are the ones that this statement would apply to! What state are you in?
@@Alas-xj8cr a contract is different than a notice. We are giving out notices (“Mr buyer please note, I do not work for you but I am here for the seller. However I can show you the house without any obligation on your part”) - a contract by law requires more components to be legally binding and enforceable- again a state-specific question you would talk to an agent in your state about
You won't show an OPEN house to someone who won't sign paperwork? You immediately scream "FRAUD".

As soon as someone makes a demand I know something is wrong and won't comply.

@@hyperlocalagent Suppose I look at 20 open houses in one day. Do I then have 20 contracted agents? How long is the contract for? 90 days?

@@hyperlocalagent But it is a contract and can bind the signer to various things, right?
