Wells Fargo Supervisor Comes Through For Spokane WA Short Sale...Again

By
Real Estate Agent with Realty ONE Group Eclipse

As most of you know, my lovely wife Jessica Side (EvoReal) and I work together on short sale listings.  She will likely not toot her own horn so I have to for her.  She closed more short sale transactions in 2011 than any other agent in the Spokane WA Multiple Listing Service.

 

That however is not the point of this post.  This post is about a Wells Fargo FHA short sale she has been working on for over a year now.  This property is located in the Spokane Valley on N. Willow Street.

(If you want details on the listing check out her website www.EvoReal.com.  It is a featured listing)

 

This property has been approved already and the buyers walked away for inspection.  This most recent story is about our negotiator who kept pending our file because she wanted agent initials on contract changes or Spokane instead of Spokane Valley to match her loan file.  Basically by the time Jessica made all the changes and we got it back over to Wells Fargo, Talondah (If you have worked with her you know what I am talking about) could not read the contract and so she gave Jessica three days to re-draft the documents, and get original signatures and initials from the buyer, seller and selling agent as well as herself.  Well as many of you know three days is just not enough.  

Result:  File Closed

We couldn't lose another buyer.  They had been reasonably paitient signing the same document three times but things were getting thin.

Now what do we do?  Talondah won't acknowlege our emails requesting the re-open of the file and it was not right to make everyone wait another two or three weeks for it to get re-assigned.

Then she came to mind.  My Wells Fargo Obi Wan Kenobi.  Jamillah.  

 

 

I sent her an email, with the newly revised contracts and an appeal to get the file assigned ASAP so we did nto lose another buyer.  She got the email on Monday 3/26.   We had our assigned negotiator assigned today 3/28.

 

Sometimes it really is who you know.  Thanks Obi Wan.

It really does matter who you know. Wells is Funny about city names being the same as the loan file. It is a servicing guideline.

To avoid using the force, I would have created the required documents myself as you already have the signatures and you could have gotten new forms, if need be, from all parties involved. You are correct that the time frame given is illogical.
