I hate that!! I was the listing agent on our home in BCS (I was licensed before I realized I kind of hated real estate). We had a deadline for offers, and picked the highest and most reasonable offer. We verbally accepted an offer, I was just waiting for my husband to sign on the dotted line after work. Another agent in my office kept blowing up my phone when we said we had accepted another offer. They tried to throw stupid money at us (it wouldn't have appraised), and tried to guilt me into keeping the transaction "in the office." When I explained that we had verbally accepted an offer we felt would successfully close, the other agent said verbal agreements meant nothing. Well, my integrity said otherwise. Our transaction went smoothly, the buyer was a dream, we got over ask, and the other agent was wonderful. Being able to respect myself at the end of the day hasn't failed me yet.
