Real Estate Agent Scary Stories: Share Your Experiences

I once had a client who seemed really nice at first. But during a property viewing, he started acting really strange. He was asking me really personal questions that made me uncomfortable. And then he started following me a bit too closely as we walked through the house. I got really scared and ended the viewing early. I was so relieved when he left.

There was a real estate agent who sold a house to a family. Later, it was discovered that the house had a dark past of a murder that had been covered up. The family started experiencing strange occurrences like cold spots and doors opening on their own. The agent was then haunted by guilt and the family's distress, as he had no idea about the house's history before selling it.

Well, once I had an agent who showed me a house that was completely misrepresented in the listing. It said it had a renovated kitchen, but when we got there, the cabinets were falling apart and the stove was ancient. It was such a waste of time.

One horror story I heard was about a house that had a strange smell during an open house. No matter what, the realtor couldn't get rid of it. Turns out there was a dead rat in the walls. It was really disgusting and made potential buyers run away quickly.

During a camping trip in the forest, my friends and I noticed that our food kept disappearing. We thought it was some small animals at first. But then one night, we heard heavy footsteps around our campsite. We peeked out of the tent and saw a large, shadowy shape rummaging through our stuff. We were too terrified to do anything but wait until it left. The next day, we found huge footprints that didn't look like any animal we knew.

Well, there's this story about a haunted house in a small town. People said that at night, you could see a figure in white moving around in the attic. A group of brave teens decided to check it out. When they got inside, the doors slammed shut on their own. They heard creaking noises all around them. One of them even felt something touch their shoulder. They quickly found a way out and never went back again. In haunted houses, such inexplicable events are what make them truly terrifying.

I once had a coordinator who double - booked viewings. It was a nightmare. The seller was furious as they had prepared the house twice for different potential buyers at the same time. It made the whole process look unprofessional and almost cost us the sale.

One of the scariest real - life ghost stories I've heard was from a friend who lived in an old house. She often heard strange footsteps at night when no one else was home. Once, she saw a shadowy figure pass by her bedroom door. It really freaked her out and she moved out soon after.

One of the scariest incidents was when an agent entered a vacant house for a showing and found a homeless person living there. The homeless person was very aggressive and refused to leave. The agent had to call the police, and while waiting, they were terrified that the person might attack them.

I had an agent who was clearly more interested in making a quick sale than in my needs. He kept pushing me to buy a property that had obvious structural problems. When I pointed them out, he downplayed them and said it was a 'great deal' that I shouldn't pass up. He also didn't disclose all the fees involved until I was about to sign the contract.
