Odd thing happened today

In Washington state, Snohomish county. Yesterday I had out an offer in on a home and it was accepted, the home is currently pending inspection. I have some younger kids that hadn’t seen the house yet and wanted to show them so coordinated through my agent to come take another look.

We go see the house earlier today and near the end while we’re wrapping up the doorbell rings. My agent answered the door and it was a woman that was ready to be shown the house. There’s still signs out front but the listing in MLS was switched to pending earlier the same day.

My realtor explains that he’s not the listing agent and asked if she had an agent or spoke with the listing agent. She said yes she has an agent, she’s selling “the property in Snohomish” like we know what that is, and her agent isn’t coming. She hasn’t contacted anyone or made an appointment to tour the home. My agent turned her away after explaining how it works and that they don’t typically show homes pending inspection, but she definitely seemed to think she could just walk in and look around pushing back hard.

Who does this, what did she expect to get out of it anyway? It was really strange and I felt the need to share.
