Just starting a new path with limited agency in Virginia. The transaction involves a buyer and a seller who are both attorney's and they just want someone to facilitate the writing of a contractual agreement. The fee was agreed to prior to the writing of the contract.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
Good morning Bill. I have worked with a few attorneys too. They seem to enjoy picking the contract apart. It really stresses me out. I guess it's part of their DNA :) Good luck.
Hi John, Thanks for the comment.I believe they are in the process of looking over everything in the contract now. It is a Virginia contract so if they change the boiler plate writing the contract is null and void and I still get paid.
Sounds kind of odd to me. Seems like basic attorney 101 is that they could write up a real estate contract. The harder part is marketing the property and getting it closed. We do a lot of ala carte and limited services in Florida and you are welcome to look at our site and price list www.sdrhouses.com .
Not worth the risk.
The attorneys may have their view of the value of the agent, which clearly isn't much.
However, the NAR and state licensing folks have their view and the agent is still at RISK.
Happy Holidays Lenn, The agent is always at risk.So ,I contacted a broker friend of mind to take on the buyer in the last situation and as soon as the ink was dry the buyer decided not to say where the money would be coming from.
