They are So Rude

Apartment hunting is still on going. I have searched online. Talked to different owners and caretakers. I walked kilometers and traveled east to west. I found one that is cheaper than my current rent. One day, I went to the location of my old apartment. On the light post, I saw a posting that said "Unit for Rent". I immediately messaged the mobile number. And the owner replied "Pls call" (that was the exact text). So I called. "The number cannot be reached". And I texted. "Cannot be reached". After 15 minutes, I attempted to call. And the call went through. I wanted to know details on the posting and the lady on the other line with a stern voice "So what is your question, make it fast". I was shocked and I did not say any word. I waited for her to hang up at least I was not rude if I stayed silent for a moment. And yesterday, I went on foot to search for an apartment. I knew there are lots of it near the mall. So I went and indeed there were lots of signages that read "Apartment / room for rent". I saw a 3-storey building and was about to dial the number when a woman burst out with "what do you need from there?" And I politely say, "I am here to inquire". She immediately asked "How much is your budget?". I humbly say "7,000". And she replied in a sarcastic voice "there is none like that. I got 11,000 and 13,000". And then I continued to ask but don't need to pursue the rental. Do you still pursue renting if the person answering your query is rude or sarcastic?
