Discretion when using email?

[Sam Leon]

I am an investor down in Florida and work with a buyer agent.

She is proficient and helpful except in one area.

She is not discreet when it comes to email. This is not intentional but has happened twice in 18 months.

The scenario would be after visiting the property and doing my research, estimating rehab cost, she supply to me comps and I will come up with the offer number. I typically will break down my reasoning, how much is the property worth once restored, what needs to be done where, how much, rental rates, etc etc etc...and my bottom line.

This email will then go back and forth a few times, with her opinions, counter points, and eventually I would have the contract worked up in PDF, my attorney reviewed with his comments, and CCed.

I would then send the final contract to her. Still part of this email thread.

One time she sent my initial offer to a listing agent, as an attachment to this email, forwarded the entire email thread. They can see all my numbers, issues, concerns, attorney comments, everything.

I spoke to her and she said never again.

Last week there was a REO property I had put an offer in but haven't heard back in one week I texted her to see if she heard anything. She dug up an email of a similar nature on that property, CCed the listing agent, and added into the body "my client would like to know what is the status of his offer. Please advise." and along with that, my entire analysis at the bottom of that email.

arghhhh.

Do you all have issues like this? Would you continue to use an agent that did this twice?
