    Ring your normal agent and explain that you'd like to deal just with them please, like Muppity says. Stuff being moved is a bit weird, unless there were kids. Ring and ask if there were kids.

    FWIW, I think you are being very generous - you are heavily pg, have a 3yo, a self-employed DH who is working long hours away from home and you have accommodated three private inspections, during the day, in the space of what, 24 hours??, the day/two days before your first OFI. I would have been tempted to say it is not convenient - but I know you are trying to sell the place and want to get as many people through as possible. One of them might be the buyer after all!

    But I'd be asking if the agent you have been dealing with can try and group these inspections - one a day maybe - and only if they absolutely cannot come to the scheduled OFI. You don't want to push anyone away but cut yourself some slack at the same time hun.
    Yeah that.
    You guys are being very accommodating, the least they could do is put things back.

    When we bought here we checked the curtains etc but WE put them back, Ava played with things but again we moved things back. It's courtesy, they might be interested in buying but it's not theirs yet. IYKWIM.

    We were selling our place when I was pregnant and I had to put the foot down - no inspections outside of our advertised open house times. I just couldn't manage to get the house into a presentable state more than one a week.

    I'd just say to agent that you only want them showing people through. They want your commission after all, so will be ok with that.
