AIBU to expect there wouldn't be a 1st viewing same time as our 2nd or that we should at least have been warned and do I complain?
We viewed a house 2 weeks ago for the first time and were lucky enough to be shown round by the vendor. He was really helpful, explained the history, how it had been a rental, suggested work he'd do if living there etc and at the end of the viewing said he'd happily let the EA pass his number on if we wanted to view again and have him there.
When we gave the EA feedback the next day (Tue) we explained we were interested but had an app at bank that Friday to discuss our mortgage options (the house needs quite a bit of work) so could we ring back re a second viewing after that. The EA didn't push to book a second viewing which I thought odd when vendor said been little interest. Ring back straight after bank and couldn't get an viewing until the following weekend which was disappointing, EA couldn't reach vendor and they assume people can view during day and don't have work?!?
Anyway we turned up to second viewing armed with questions, tape measure etc and 5 minutes in another couple turn up to have a first viewing at the same time!! AIBU to think this is out of order?? The EA at the viewing also offered no help what so ever, stood downstairs the whole time, couldn't answer any questions and made it very obvious he wanted to get the viewings over with asap. The only time he spoke was to tell us while we were in the garden that he'd locked the front door because he assumed we'd done inside.
We were thinking of putting an offer in but felt so rushed and put off by the other viewers we only checked half of the things they suggest for a second viewing. Now it's BH the EA isn't open until Tues and I'm worried we might not get a 3rd viewing for any time soon. I'm also left wondering whether I should complain to the EA or whether this would damage our chances of getting the house if other offers come in. Any advice????
