4. When he tells you that someone is coming to pay, but he's still taking you everywhere for inspection. grin

This is what I expected op to list as number 1.

That is how one agent was asking me to pay for house that I have not seen (only pictures). He was saying that I should hurry because another person was negotiating with the landlord himself that I should rush and pay to close the deal.

He will call me and then call my parents. So I called him and said told him that the documentation I was doing (I just got an internship placement then) was more important and that if that person pays before me then no probs.

2 days later I saw the place and the environment was abysmal. Short fence, no water, accumulated bills and the said person appeared to be imaginary. Run anytime you hear that someone wants to or is about to pay.

When it comes to buying and selling properties, or renting apartments, you'd definitely need the assistance of a good real estate agent.

But how do you know if a real estate agent is lying? ... Or when he is lying?

There are 3 unmistakable signs that lets you know when an agent is lying.

No. 1: When he gives you misleading property descriptions.

You probably might have heard things like "That land close to the Dangote refinery is just 25minutes drive from chevron roundabout"
Such descriptions are misleading and as such you need to be on alert.

No 2: When he talks too much without even giving attention to your desires or past experiences.

No 3: When he over inflates the property value.

Yes! Properties in Lekki and Ibeju Lekki are consistently increasing in value. But when an agent starts telling you "Buy now! this property is going to go up in value by over 750% next year", then there's every tendency that he's lying. This is because even if the property would go up in value by over 750% next year, he doesn't need to blurt it out like that.

Am I trying to say that all real estate agents are liars? Heavens No! There are lots of sincere ones out there.

I just want you to be equipped with the right information to know when and if an agent is lying to you.

99% of salespeople are liars. It's nothing to be ashamed of. As a buyer, you should also do your due diligence. The world itself is built on lies.

Don't be a turkey.

When he says: Oga, people don book this house finish oh. If you rush now give me this money, I go fit save this house for you.
2 weeks later: The number you're trying to call does not exist.

Well, this is the stock-in-trade of every service provider, from TELCOs to small business owners.

In fact, every salesman (including those providing services, and not goods) is a smooth talker, and a chronic liar. It is either they are exaggerating the value of something undeserving, or they are lying about something outrightly non-existent.

Lol. Op, what are you talking about? Real Estate agents make a living off lying to their clients.

They will lie that the land you're buying has no omo onile issues.
They will lie to you that someone else wants the same property and so you should buy fast
They will lie to you that your landlord is a nice person if you're renting.
They will lie to you that government is going to build a new road soon if you're buying a remote farmland.

E be like say you no know agents sha
Tell you they will fix the light.
