Also sounds like you had a crappy realtor. If you're using a realtor, get them to work for you, that's what they're for. Give them the specs of the house you're looking for, sure, but they should be calling you with listings, vetting the homes before they show them to you, handling negotiation relays and inspection setups, etc.
Just general advice, yes you pay them, but if they aren't working for you, pay someone else.
My realtor was never on time to a single showing. He never knew the answer to any question without taking time to look it up himself. He couldn't remember my specifications and his reading comprehension was non-existent as I had to repeat myself many, many times to get any kind of point across.
If I hadn't gotten my house when I did, I would have dropped him. If I were any other kind of business owner and one of my employees acted like that people would think I was a fucking moron for keeping them on.
Your realtor is your employee. Don't be afraid to fire them for shitty performance.
