Have we all hear the old saying "If it ain't in writing it ain't" !
this is the one that is worth repeating.
I had a closing last week yeahaaa!! It was a longest and worse closing I ever had (and I had some good ones trust me). Summary it went over 48 hours and if you wonder what went wrong you name it!
What I actually wanted to talk about is one of the issues that we faced. I was a buyers agent and it was a cash deal little more on your shoulders since there isn't a bank involved and its all you. We where said that there is a contract for termite treatment in place and my buyers, against my advice, decide not to get inspection but instead they will pick that contract up. Not very smart but we have seen it before.
At the closing table we ask for the proof of the contract as for obtaining contact info and listing agent doesn't have one. She didn't realize that we would need one?!
Still cool lets just call the provider and have them fax us something....
Yes you got it, there is no contract! I can't believe I was there doing the inspection in the very last minute just because I have assumed that listing agent knows what is she talking about. Once again GET IT IN WRITING!!
Good selling out there and be careful!
