Lorrie Manganello Guindon, a real estate agent with Berkshire Hathaway Page, was overseeing a fairly ordinary open house last year when her text messages blew up. They were from her seller, who, as is customary, wasn’t on the scene. But, judging by his missives, it seemed as though he was eavesdropping as she walked prospective buyers through his abode.
“The immediate red flag was that he asked me to redescribe the beautiful sunroom as a ‘solarium.’ He was listening to me describe the room! Then someone had turned on a faulty master bathroom fan that made a ton of noise. He could hear it and asked me to turn it off for the rest of the open house,’’ she recalled.
