It's normal for a listing broker/agent to leave the buyers inside alone with THEIR broker/agent if they want to talk freely about how they feel seeing the property.This is when having the listing broker there or the seller can be a negative.Having said that a listing broker SHOULD NOT let the buyers out of their site when inside of your property alone when they do not have a buyers broker/agent present.They also should NOT use any part of your property as an ashtray outside or in.It sounds like to me you hired the wrong person.I would be calling the head broker of the company and asked to be re-assigned a new listing agent and tell them what happened.If the principal broker cares about their company they will take the incident very seriously.If they are the head broker then ask to be released from your agreement on grounds of negligence.
