Did we ask too many questions during the buying process?

We are in the process of closing on a home and had 4 questions for our REA. Keep in mind that all of these questions are relevant and should be asked before closing. Such as - there is a whole house generator installed July 2020, so we wanted to ensure that the HOA gave approval and that we have some type of documentation.

During our conversation with the REA, she stated "This is just unusual for buyers to ask so many questions".  I replied, "We asked 4 questions total and they were all things that YOU told us to look for".  


She wasn't thrilled about it and said she would forward them to the seller.  I am a bit confused because we truly only asked 4 questions during this whole process.  

Are we in the wrong?

Hi @Ethan Bennett, unfortunately it sounds like your may want to consider who you are working with.

Even if you guys were actually asking way more questions than you did, she should look to make you guys feel comfortable. Remember, you are buying a house, not a t-shirt haha! This process shouldn't be taken lightly and doing your due diligence is super important. If she can't respect that, then maybe you need to work with someone else.
