I found a great property for a great price in a little Alaskan town that’s known for a fair amount of tourism. The property has been on the market for some time, and I think it’s the perfect one to rehab a little and rent out. The problem is, my agent can’t get ahold of the seller’s realtor. He said he’s going to keep on reaching out, and I have no doubt that he is doing that. We ran into this problem before when we were looking for my current second property/househack. I found a fourplex in another town, whose realtor we couldn’t get an answer from. The funny thing is, I ended up meeting that seller’s realtor, and he told me he was the realtor for that property that I would have bought if we could have just gotten ahold of him.

My question is, now that I know that ghosts don’t put up real estate listings and that they are real people, how do we get ahold of realtors who don’t seem to want to answer their phones or emails? I really want this property.
