Some real estate dickhead just rang my mobile (which is not advertised anywhere) saying they were "just in the area" and wanted to do an appraisal on a house we own in <suburb name>.
It's an agency we don't use for any purpose, have never used for any purpose, and have never approached for any reason.
Is there some sort of legal issue with some smarmy sales knob looking up property owner details and cold calling them?
Makes me feel all gross that their grubby mitts are pawing through my deets somewhere in the hope of being able to stick a tongue up my bum and get a taste of some back door cash.
I own my own house and I get cold texts and calls about twice a month about interrest in my property. I answered once and told them unless you're willing to add another $100k on top of what you're going to offer me so I can afford just a basic equivalant home in the area then no I am not selling because I kind of live here.
The caller responded "well do you know others who would removed to sell in the area"?
This is my heap of dump and I'm not going back into $100k+ mortgage. I can't find a home for sale in the area under $300k and this place used to be affordable. They're building all right.

If they are doing this in Aussie land that means the problem has spread past

You will own nothing and be happy.
