Real Estate Adventures with Laura and Hans: “Can You Do My Job Too?”
Every now and then, real estate surprises you — like when another agent asks if you’ll handle their final walk-through. Spoiler alert: I won’t. And Hans has thoughts.
In this episode of Real Estate Adventures with Laura and Hans, the deal is almost closed, everything’s been scheduled, and it’s time for the buyer to do their final walk-through — a standard step before closing.
Then comes the text from the buyer’s agent:
“Hey, can you do the final walk-through with my buyers?”
Uh… no.
As the listing agent, it’s not my role (or responsibility) to guide someone else’s clients through a final walk-through — especially right before they legally take possession of a property. The risk of liability is way too high. What if something’s wrong and I miss it? What if they claim I said something I didn’t?
Hans was glaring from the backseat as I read the message.
Hans (thinking): “Next time, I’ll bring a leash for them.”
Why does this matter for buyers and sellers?
Because the right representation matters. Whether you’re buying or selling, you need a committed agent who shows up — not one who outsources the final stretch of the deal.
As a seller, you want someone who protects your interests until the keys are officially handed over.
As a buyer, you deserve an agent who walks beside you — literally and figuratively — all the way to the finish line.
👉 Buying or selling in Auburn or Opelika? Work with a realtor who won’t hand off your important moments to someone else — and definitely won’t ghost you at the final walk-through. Let’s talk.
