Stupid Realtor tricks – open house edition

Some Realtors never come up short on ways to waste your time by bait-and-switching you into looking at their listings.

Hat tip to a CribChatter commenter for surfacing one of the latest Stupid Realtor tricks: gaining visibility in open house searches by scheduling open houses in the MLS from 6 to 6:15 a.m. on Sunday.

The agent has pulled this trick on at least one other listing. If the property is not in fact open for viewing at that time, will the MLS fine this @properties agent for what clearly appears to be abusive behavior? There’s no doubt, as the CribChatter comments suggest, that some consumers will punish him and his sellers by shunning his listings.
