Richmond, Va. - The Virginia Association of Realtors is warning real estate agents of a person who is persistently calling female agents to show them properties in remote places, at night, or in areas they don't generally cover.

The VAR says the man has called several female Realtors in central and southern Virginia multiple times over the past week, requesting that they show him homes.

Agents report that the man refuses to meet them during the day, in public locations, or at their offices. The caller is reportedly very persistent.

One agent has reported to the VAR that the man asked her to "Show me anything you can this evening," to which she refused. Another agent was asked to show a land listing after dark. Again, the agent refused.

Law enforcement agencies have been notified.
