I’ve just listed my house for sale. It’s currently empty, but my daughter is temporarily living there as she had to leave her house because of some repairs. She called me this morning to let me know that the agents put a sale sign up outside. She didn’t see who it was, but they’ve placed the sign at the top of the drive. The drive is very narrow, and she’s going to have a difficult time getting in and out. I really don’t know why the agent thought that was a good spot for it. Last year, when the house was listed with a different agent, they put the sign behind the wall at the top of the garden, which was much better and didn’t block the drive. I didn’t mention this to them, but honestly, common sense should tell you that the drive is too narrow.
Anyway, I just called the office and asked them to move it, but they told me the agent won’t be back in the area until next week, so we’ll have to wait until then. Am I being unreasonable for thinking this is pretty poor customer service? It’s made it really awkward to get in and out, and they’ve basically said we just have to deal with it until they can come back. I can’t even move it myself as it’s nailed down.
