How long do you want to ignore this user?
A friend of mine is trying to rent a house and when he contacted the listing agent they asked who the buyers agent was and when my friend said he doesn't have one the sellers agent sent him a contract to be his buyers agent and won't show him the house without him signing. How would you handle that? Isn't that what the 2023 lawsuit basically was, I'm suggesting seeing if he can find the owner and letting them know.

Not what the suit was about, but it is pretty ****ty. Also probably not worth fighting about, the agent is doing crappy things, which probably means the owner will do crappy things or let the agent run everything (and we know how they act.)

Letting them be his buyers agent cost him nothing if he really wants the house. But as an agent and reasonable adult, I would say just move on and find something else that doesn't have red flags.

Call Jamie.

Then Jamie will call them to request a showing.

You won't find someone who will quicker spot d-bag Realtor shenanigans AND save you from them than Jamie.

Is he trying to rent the house or buy a rent house?
