Q. Where do I file a complaint regarding real estate broker whose staff seems incompetent which cost us the home we were purchasing. 1) We bid on a house early June and it went pending so we moved on. 2) We bid on another house we saw, but we were contacted by the other agent that we got the house...to make the story short, we were told we got the house, then we were told the bank took cash offer...so for the second time, we moved on... then we got a call saying that the cash offer backed out and if we still want the house, we have it (this is on a Friday). We specifically told the listing agent's office that we put in a bid to another house and we need to make sure that we have the house before we rescinded our offer. We were told yes so we rescinded our other offer and was waiting to get final documentation and escrow information. Then on Monday, the listing agent's office contacted our realtor saying "oh the bank made a mistake and there is another offer" and there is a possibility that we "do not" have the house..... etc. etc... So HELP... purchasing a home is stressful enough and dealing with incompetent office is much harder. We want to make sure that no one else goes through the roller-coaster that we went through... Thank you.

Q. I am planning on putting my house on the market in about a year. There are a few basic improvements that I'm planning on (new paint, minor landscaping, etc...) before I try to sell. The one thing I'm not sure of though is the flooring. I know I need new flooring (right now it's carpet and in not the greatest of shape) but I'm wondering what to get. I have a limited budget and since it will be less than a year before I list the house I don't want to go too crazy. In the price range I can afford is either a really cheap engineered hardwood or a really nice wood laminate. I would like to know if going with the cheap hardwood would be better as far as resale value/attractiveness of the house more so than the really nice laminate flooring or if it would just be better to put in new carpet. Thanks in advance.

Q. Can a short sale report of "settled for less than full balance" ever be negotiated or legitimately erased after it has been posted? I know that credit repair scams are rampant on the internet but a realtor was telling me that if I look hard enough, there are ways to remove this for a price. The fact that even the lesser effect of the short sale over Foreclosure or DIL has the lender report to the credit reporting agencies a Score Factor Code #22, can immensely damage any chances of buying another home or refinancing a current one for about 2 years. Is anyone familiar with legal credit repair?

Q. I have an investment property (rented) in Hillsborough county and needles to say, upside down. I know the property will never be worth what I owe on it (about 350% upside down) and don't know whether I should attempt a loan mod or short sale. I'm not in default nor late but my income has drastically been reduced this year and cannot continue all these expenses. The loan mod only keeps me in a bad situation that I can never sell and the short sale will have negative effect on my credit but gives me my life back. I'm leaning towards the short sale since a loan mod will only cost me more money and prolong the agony. If I attempt a short sale, are there qualified agents that will have a ready market for selling my property and can also help me negotiate decent terms with the lender? (Namely, no deficiency judgment or recourse). How long should the process take with the right agent negotiating with my lender and finding a buyer? I'm aware that a 100C must be dealt with. Please, any experienced specialists, I value your advice. Steve

Q. Hello, My name is Valerie Y. Wheeler. I am contacting you (& others) at the suggestion of Melissa O’Neal of the Harrison District Board of Realtors. I am co-owner of real estate in Boone County that my daughter Elizabeth D. (Wheeler) Alcantara has been trying to sell. I spoke directly with the real estate agent who was representing Elizabeth. That person is not associated with your agency. However, I am trying to be proactive to prevent a future problem. That agent told me Elizabeth has a document which appeared to be signed by me giving consent to sell. And I suspect Elizabeth may contact other agencies to try to sell the property now that the first Realtor will no longer represent her. I have not signed anything giving my permission for the sale. The property location is Lot 15, Oak Grove Estates, Phase I, Boone County, Arkansas. The address is 3220 Big Oak Road, Harrison, AR 72601. I repeat for emphasis, I have not given my permission for the sale of this property. Pleases inform other Realtors. I live in Newton County. My home phone is 870-428-5456. Cell 870-391-9133. e-mail. Home address HCR 62 BOX 269Ozone, AR 72854. Thank you, valerie@eritter.net

Q. My husband and I have an accepted aggreement to purchase a home and the deal is set to close on July 31st. Everything is set to go, just waiting for closing day. Last night my husband decides that he no longer wants me to move into the new home. He would rather move in with his children and his father. Where does this leave me? I feel used and conned. He used me to get a home that he wanted and now I am on the new mortgage and responsible for assisting him with payments. If I say no, he refuses to pay the new mortgage and forces me into bankruptcy as well as himself. He has used this as a threat and I believe that he has no problem fulfiling this threat. What then are my options. Secondly, we did have our current home on the market but no bites. We decided to rent our home out and have a signed 1 year lease with a tenant. Since I cannot move into the new home, can I choose to stay in my home now (name on deed and mortgage is mine only), or must I move myself and 3 children out for a period of one year so I can honour the lease agreement.

Q. Who here has considered MAKING A RESIDUAL MONTH AFTER MONTH RATHER THAN A ONE-TIME PAYOUT OUT JUST ON SALES COMMISION ALONE? I can help you use a system that will pay you something continually. I have Brokers and Agents who make more in residual getting paid month after month on doing something once than the commisons from selling homes each month. My Mentor told me...you need to have a SYSTEM if you want to become succesful. I said ok what kind of system should I have. He just said make sure it is a S.Y.S.T.E.M.= Save Yourself Time Energy and Money. I have found a simple system that I have had my business partners in real estate use that has allowed them to create a monthly residual. And it is simple! I took time to learn it and now have perfected this system...I definantly save time energy and money doing this everytime I can, use this and you can seamlessly impliment it and start seeing instant results.
