"Motivated seller" didn't show up to show me his house!

[Paul Kuegle]

I had a motivated seller contact me because he has a house he wants to get rid of. It's been vacant for 2 years. I had an appointment today to go see this vacant house but he never showed up, never called & I called him and left messages. It's really annoying. Do any of you have issues with people not showing up after they make appointments to show you their house? Any tips to avoid tire kickers?
