I recall the Zillow tour request from Bradley Harris, which I initially thought was another spam request. I was overwhelmed with numerous illegitimate tour requests for a distressed property—an old farmhouse from 1894 listed at $190,000 in a town where the average sale price ranges from $650,000 to $700,000. Given that I received the same request over six times in three hours, I assumed Mr. Harris was just another spam lead. I explained the spam situation I was experiencing with this property and informed Mr. Harris about its issues, hoping to save him a trip. I mentioned that the house was unsalvageable and would need to be demolished. During previous showings, other potential buyers had quickly left after seeing the interior just past the front door, often citing concerns about mold. I required visitors to wear masks and sign a waiver before entering due to the significant mold problem. If my message came across as rude, I sincerely apologize. I also contacted Zillow to address the spam requests, and they acknowledged the issue and took steps to resolve it. As a 32-year veteran Realtor, I pride myself on being professional and experienced; I wouldn't have lasted in this industry if I weren't.
