Should I Tell Agent
Hello. I was looking to buy a house with my family so we contacted a real estate agent "Reba". She was friendly and I had a lot in common with her so we kind of became friends. However, I felt like we weren't getting anywhere because she was very laid back. I did most of the house searches myself. We even took a break from looking for a few months, and she was very patient and kept in touch. The last straw was when we had some problems with the broker she worked with. Frustrated, I told her I wanted to take a break again and that I would contact her when I was ready to start looking. She said ok. We were new to the area, so out of curiosity I contacted a different real estate agent to see what else was out there. He was very helpful! He found houses for us to look at right away. I decided to go with him, and we got apporoved from his financer. We found a place in 1 month! Now my question is should I tell Reba that we decided to go with someone else and we just closed? I feel bad because she was so patient, and I know she was looking forward to the sale. But at the same time, she wasn't very aggressive so I don't know if things would have worked out with her. Should we say something or just not contact her again?

If you had a friend who was a mechanic and you had to book a month out since his schedule was full, but problem got worse and you needed car service sooner, wouldn't you let the friend know and cancel the appt with his service garage? It doesn't matter if its a friend or a stranger, if someone is doing business with you and you no longer need their service, you have to let them know. So let her know. She doesn't have to know how it happened that you went with someone else. Sometimes, people drive by a house with a for sale sign and see the name and number of the realtor and call them instead. Although she probably could have arranged to take you there herself, as you said, she wasn't aggresive enough in this job.
