说白了没小定没诚心
去office的目的不是中介要看到你这个人，是要你能当场交小定
否则你忽悠完了不买了卖家 ...
SA has different process. We don't have Xiaoding or Dading.
I may be too dubious. But this agent looks very dodgy. He didn't impress well on spot during inspection as well by avoiding my enquiries as to the house.

你签与不签，房子都要auction. 你买或不买，律师都该看合同。
agent's email "Sorry. I told you in my last email. The property is for Auction. If you want me to help you to secure this home, you need to come to the office and sign the document  any time this week."
Does it mean this house will go to auction anyway, regardless of my offer prior or not? My understanding of "the document" here is only for registration of my interest.

I am so confused why he wants me to go to his office. It's such a long distance.
"You do not have to sign the document, you come in and I fill out for you then you bring to your solicitor to have a look at.
if you are not happy, you have 2 days to cool off.
So do not worry about that. This is Australia, not China.
I want to help you."
Does it mean my offer may be acceptable?  He knows I came here 5 years ago from China the other day.

I still don't understand why he persists I should go to his office.
If I don't have to sign it on the spot, then there's no reason why he can't e-mail it to me.
If they are determined to go to auction (and it sounds like they are) then I should request a copy of the contract for my conveyancer to check before the auction.
Also, 2-day cooling off does not apply if the property is sold at auction.

Nod.
I called the agent to explain why I wasn't able to go to his office tonight. He still hope I could turn up tomorrow night. Here below is our simplified conversation.
Me "Could you let me know why you want me to your office?"
RE "to provide your full name and broker's details." This is odd.
ME "You mean, I need to bring my documents to you?"
RE "No, you don't need to bring them."
ME "Well, I can send them to you by email. Does it mean I don't necessarily need to go to your office in person?"
RE "No, you still need to come. I want to help you."
ME "For what?"
RE "to sign the document..."
Me "I need to clarify. I am not going to sign any documents before my conveyancer checks it..."
RE "No problem."
ME "Actually, you can email me the document and I will read through. If it's ok, we can arrange a time to meet up..."
RE "No, you need to come.Your offer is a bit lower. Can you raise it?"
ME "Eh. I have done some research. I believe my offer is reasonable..."
RE "Reasonal.If you want this house before the auction, I want to help you. You need to come to my office..."
I really didn't know why and had to end this conversation by "I'll keep in touch with you. Have a good one."
Now, I'm more confused. What does he exactly want? Can I send my fullname and lender's information to him as requested?
I may go to his office tomorrow evening, not for this business but I have been to that area, just a driving trip. :p
