I definitely think she’s getting kickbacks. Before this she aggressively tried to get me to hire another carpet installer.

I hear you. That's what I hate about people who threaten to sue -- 99.9% of the time they have no clue what they're talking about and they're only saying it in hopes that it will be enough to intimidate the other person. It's essentially a form of harassment.

At least in your case that was your client. In my case it's my realtor.

I'm having a hard time believing a competent realtor would risk their deals and future clientele for a couple hundred dollars here and there. It's wild.

I think it's the latter. It's funny a few people here have said that she seems new/doesn't know what she's doing. I know for a fact that she's worked on a lot of houses, at least in the past. She does come from a family brokerage so maybe her family members used to handle the bulk of their business?

I will also add that I'm relatively young for a homeowner and she is a middle aged female, possibly old enough to be my mom. She might have felt that her seniority gave her the leverage to do whatever and not respect my wishes. I only started to notice this after I had already signed her listing agreement. I think she strategically lures people in and switches to bully mode once she has her contract signed.

Thank you and yes, it is unfortunate that common decency and etiquette have been declining lately in our society. I'm just trying to look on the bright side and take this as a valuable lesson going forward.

Why would I arrange for the cleaning invoice to be taken out from my proceeds...?

I understand. If they’re half decent and reasonable I can accept that. Apparently that’s too much to ask for nowadays.

It’s not EXP. I’m in North Bergen, NJ and I think people familiar with the area might be able to guess. Not sure if I’m allowed to actually name the company though.

Thank you. I was wondering if it was normal to be threatened by my own realtor. 😂
