We’ve been house hunting for several months now. We found our realtor through our friends, they were really happy with him so we figured we could work with him too. His office is a bit far from where we live, about 45-50 minutes away. It’s not terrible. But he does insist we go to his office whenever we want to put in an offer. We’ve only put in one offer so far, so this happened once. But we want to put in an offer on a house we saw last night.
Unfortunately, my boyfriend has a wacky work schedule. So we didn’t go last night after viewing the house to put in an offer. It just wouldn’t have worked out time wise. So now we’ll have to go very late tonight to put in the offer. Luckily the owners are giving people till Monday before all offers are reviewed. I’ve asked multiple times if this process is something we can do over docusign or anything like that and have been told no, it would be best to go to the office to put in the offer.
While I’m very aware we made this choice to work with this guy for several months now, I will say having to go to his office to put in an offer has been a slight obstacle. It’s not always convenient to get there, and in a market like this where house are coming and going, the extra time needed to get there has added a layer of difficulty. We should have factored this in before picking a realtor.
I realize I’m likely complaining about nothing (this process has turned me a bit sour) but I just wanted to know, is it always standard to go to the realtor’s office to put in offers? Several other people I know have said no, the only time they went to the office was for initial meetings or closing. Thanks for any answers!
