Most showings are set up through buyers agents.
When you call the listing agent directly, the first 2 things that she thinks are "can I double end this sale?" and "can I pick up a new client?".

If it's an honest agent, they will take the time to try and understand your criteria and make you a new client by earning your trust. Doesn't sound like this agent has done that, so you're better to find someone who can and let them get to work for you.

You have to understand that agent may have had a relationship with that seller for decades, and you are just a new phone call. Who do you think her priority is at this point?
