Sometime around mid-October, I received an offer on one of my Sacramento short sales. The buyer's agent swore that the buyers loved the home. On top of that, the agent promised in writing not to write any more offers for those buyers as everyone waited for short sale approval. We received

The usual scenario goes like this: An upside-down homeowner loses his job and the family scrambles to make the mortgage payments. They borrow on credit cards, ask other family members for help, sell possessions. They may ask the lender to do a loan modification and spend months trying to qualify before

This doesn't happen very often, thank goodness, but yesterday a short sale buyer flaked out. I had called a Sacramento agent to let him know that Chase Bank was about to approve a short sale for his buyer. The agent blurted, "Oh, that buyer bought a home last month." Bear in

Some agents don't go to closings with their clients, but I always try to attend. I believe it's important to be at the signing with my clients because they might have questions, and because I like to show my support. To me, it's part of my job. After all, if I've

Question: Q: I wanted to buy a house. I used a mortgage broker who was NOT in the same state I was in. I was preapproved for a loan. When I found a house, my mortgage broker told me what my payment, taxes, and insurance would be. I made an offer and it was accepted. I put a $1000 down payment on the home. The day came to sign the papers. During the signing I noticed that my monthly payment was $300 higher. After a phone call to the mortgage broker, I was told that the title company found that the mortgage broker had used the wrong state tax rate to calculate the payment. The title company discovered the error and corrected it. I could not afford this higher payment and so I cancelled the transaction and lost my $1000 deposit. My question is, who is at fault? The mortgage broker said it was my agent's fault. My agent said it was the broker's fault. Please help me answer this question. Thank You.

Question: 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.

Question: Should I get a buyer agent? I'm planning on buying a home around 70k-80k in Sacramento, CA by cashing it. I'm trying to do away with unnecessary cost of getting a home. I've done all the searching and touring the streets by myself. How much would one cost me and do I really need to get one to tour the inside and buy the house?
