WARNING - This is a short rant
Several days ago we finally got an approval on a short sale that was submitted back in early April; I don't have to tell you how much work went into hanging on to the Buyer. We only have several days to get the inspection done and approved by the buyer. I checked with the selling agent to make sure the water and electric would be on and scheduled an appointment with the inspector. By the time the agent contacted the electric company it was too late for the first inspection appointment; OK, the inspection is moved to Monday late afternoon. Monday morning I get a call from the agents assistant, not only did they forget to go over to the property an turn off the circuit breakers for the electric to be turned on, but they didn't have the code to get into the gate of the community; fortunately I did. I canceled the second inspection appointment. Now we are down to today which is the last day allotted for the inspection; the agents assistant said she will call me today to make sure the electric is on; fortunately the inspector will rearrange his schedule to accommodate me for a third time, I can't even give him a time. Yesterday I email the agent wanting an extentionof the inspection period, so far I have not heard back. IF I was allowed to make the arrangements I would have, I will do what ever I have to to make the sale!. Why does it seem more and more agents are falling down on their responsibilities? A closing is not done until the ink hits the paper. I thought we (the selling agent and buying agent) were doing this dance together.
OK, the rant is over
