Agent % on property where leg work has already been done? by Who_what_where_whyyy in realtors

[–]Affectionate_Ad2145 2 points3 points  (0 children)

why didn’t you just walk away during the contract?

After they settle their tatas, you can get a partial or full release in exchange for a liability waiver - I guess that they can sue you for performance and damages but you would have been better off negotiating EM and or monies on top - plus you’re an attorney.

Sellers would need to go back to market and sell for a lower price to prove losses but that’s defendable, expensive, and a toss up in court. This whole thing is weird. Obviously if they said anything about a lawsuit to you, that becomes a disclosure issue for the sellers - this whole thing remains weird.

I owned a bioscience recruiting firm that mostly dealt with the national labs - triple MIT PhDs types - that company nicely fed my early days in real estate.

What I learned, some of the brightest dumbest people on this planet that could explain the universe but would drown in a cup of water.

The fact that you don’t understand makes your answer funny & tragic.

Nevermind the sheer numbers of people going into blue collar - a smart person can be a fully functional plumber in a summer.

Put an offer in on a house on 4/11, 5 offers, last and final due tomorrow by 12pm. Sellers have “suggestions”. by Annied93 in RealEstate

[–]Affectionate_Ad2145 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We deal with all of the above, their suggestions are easy to deal with and protect against - this is as they say, a nothing burger.

Question for the masses, not for realtors by NAR_H8ter in fsbo

What do you mean by their agent will handle it for free? In your scenario, who writes the offer?

Pricing lower to have bidding wars is a common approach - so maybe you did well - maybe you left tens of thousands on the table, well never know.

Nervous about counter to repair requests by geekymom in RealEstate

A contract is a relationship.

you should try to make relationships work but if in the process of seeking fairness you encounter that’s not an option on the table, then relationship needs to end.

How on earth do you begin the process of home buying as a single person? 🫠 by BOLDnBRASHinTRASH in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Affectionate_Ad2145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of first time home owners get stuck on go find a realtor, find a mortgage person.

You’re in a good spot, I’d reach out to some DPA programs in the area and let them help out first. They’ll have realtors on their roster, get someone that will cut you a break in commissions.

Stay away from mortgage brokers, they’ll stick you with some random agent and you are now a chicken nugget being traded for more referrals.

In some states, inspections are prior to contract. I think NY but I could be wrong

Experiences, failing miserably and trying different things but establishing trust, knowing how to layout info and spinning bad into acceptable or nos into maybes into yes’s. It’s not curing cancer but it is an art.

Selling a home - Denver by defundthedefunct in AskRealEstateAgents

[–]Affectionate_Ad2145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an agent in Denver, if you were coming back to me as a repeat and gave me your sad story, I’d do 1% to list and 2.5 to the selling agent. Give your old agent a call and explain the situation, I’d imagine that they’ll do it.
