The house which they are trying to let out has got very good features,but because the agents are apparently short staffed they would allow veiwing(that too no more than 4 slots available) from 10am to 11.30am on Wednesdays!!!
The house has still not gone even after 5 weeks,and many interested clients like me are not able to view it.
Obviosuly they are not helping the vendor or the potential tenant..
Is there any way we can tackle this,or we just need to bear up??

Well, try another agent you don't have to been with them... Unless you are the ones selling the house...
I know some people who are living in the house you can go at certain times... but not empty...

Not to be harsh or anything but your assuming is making an @ss of you. If a house is only being shown at certain times on certain days, its pretty much a slam dunk bet that is because that is a restriction placed by the SELLER and not the real estate agent. The agent wants to show the property anytime a prospective buyer wants to see it in order to earn a sales COMMISSION (no sale no commission no money)
Just curious but did you happen to ask the agent why the restricted viewing time? You didn't did you? You just assumed and automatically blamed the entire office and the agent.
Apparently, you are short staffed on logic and common sense!

Sounds like they are a small two bit Agency or they are too lazy. No wonder they can't let the property if nobody can view it. If it's alarge agent, contact their Head Office and express your feelings. Remind them that they require people like yourself to pay their wages and idf they don't resolve the issue promptly, you will go elsewhere and inform everybody you know that the agent is unreliable. In addition, you will make sure that those you tell, will also tell others and warn them to avoid that agency. You can also check to see if the Agent is a member of a professional organisation, if it is, make a formal complaint to the organisation and cc the complaint to the Government Agency that is responsible for Estate Agents and to the agent's Head Office. To be honest, I would personally make the official complaints, speak to the local newspaper and then go elsewhere. If they can't be reliable enough to conduct viewings, imagine the service if you have a problem with the property.

Its sad when an agent does not do his/her fiduciary responsibility for the Seller, or Buyer for that matter.
The house will not sell fast and he maybe only trying to find out if there is interest in the house at all. Agents do this all the time to see if a listing is really worth any effort to sell.
That may seem like a harsh statement but it is the truth!

In my opinion, they are not very interested in selling it quickly. Is this the way real estate is sold in your country? Maybe you could suggest to them to have an Open House on a weekend day so that more people could view it.
We sometime have clients that work different shifts and we try to accomodate them with showings. Some require a 24 hours notice before showing.

Is the agent hired by the owners or hire by you. Cause if he is hired by the owners to sale the house contact the owners. But if you hired the agent find another agent and/or the contact the listed agent for that property.

You could call the estate Atty if you know who that is and express EXTREME interest if you just view the property.
Sounds like they do not want to be bothered with traffic in the house.
Good luck
