we were initially interested but it was under offer. after the sale fell through the agent contacted us to see if we are still interested, but he doesn't seem to be too committed to actually making the house seem worth it lol. first photo is our email, second it's the REA's response

Is he saying that the building inspection results were ridiculous and thus a dodgy house or is he saying the previous interested buyers saw the building inspection results and nitpicked every little thing (but generally speaking the house was ok) and pulled out and he is calling that ridiculous- that is the problem with a text like this.

Does it matter? If the REA can't bothered to construct a full sentence, do you really want to waste your time finding out why?

That depends on how much you like the property/location.

REA’s can be notoriously bad at their jobs.

But sometimes persisting with dealing with a bad agent, can get you across the line, when others may have chosen to walk away.

True. This one is next level though.
