@Michael Lee What market(s) are you looking at? Some places are very crazy right now and if you don't present yourself as an immediate buyer, agents will walk away as there are so many people ready to buy at any minute. 

Hey Michael, Sure slow responses can happen in this market, but no response isn't acceptable. Communication is completely free, but many don't use it as generously as they could. 

That being said, to sympathize with agents at the moment, buyers are not hard to find, and sellers (or deals) are a rarity in this market. Anything listed (here in OKC at least) will have plenty of cash buyers looking, and on larger deals or multifamily even institutional money is ready to offer. 

It's a hard time to meet agents as a buyer. You may be very serious, pre-approved, or even ready to offer in cash, but agents don't get paid for writing offers, just ones that they contract and close. This doesn't make it excusable, but understandable in some peoples perspective.

Once again I am a real estate broker and a property manager so I am not making excuses for poorly run businesses or agents not willing to take time to communicate. If you have a specific market you're looking in I would be happy to see if I have any connections that could be of service. Sorry this has been your experience lately!
