Weirdness is Running Rampant in Our Office...
Have you ever had one of those days...
I've been having one of those WEEKS in our office!
First, one of our owners (remember, we manage rental units too) has been foreclosed on. Except... OOOPS... it was supposed to be the neighbor's unit, not his! He's never missed a payment! Hmmm...
Second, my title company catches an issue on one of my short sales. Seems that back in 2008 when my seller got divorced, the paralegal she hired to handle the documents accidentally left someone elses name in one of the spots on the deed, so now we have to track down Carlos, who is now part owner of the home, and who ALSO has a judgment against him that will now need to be paid to clear title. Bad news... nobody knows who Carlos is and we can't find him. Good news... the attorney that is foreclosing also didn't know about Carlos, so the foreclosure is filed wrong and they'll have to start all over on the foreclosure! Yayyy! Delayed so I can close the short sale!
Third, one of my other files the title company found that the LAST FOUR DEED TRANSFERS have had the wrong legal description on them, so again... sale postponed, need to fix title, then close on the short sale!
And the list goes on... a seller that wants me to pre-approve a buyer THEN they'll list with me. (not sure how I find a buyer if I haven't listed the property yet... Hmmm...)
Some days I love my job... others I think about moving to a log cabin in the woods (actually, a beach cabana on a private island! :)
What craziness have YOU seen lately?
By the way... this just goes to show that consumers HAVE to have an experienced professional on their team in today's crazy market...
