Vallejo CA Home Buyers Beware!!!

By
Real Estate Agent with Messina Realty Vallejo DRE# 01494298

Hello Everyone, I just recently received a offer form a local broker in the Vallejo area and she was charging her buyer client a $699.00 FEE to do there paperwork. Did you know that agent is already being compensated to do this by the seller?  I have been selling homes in Vallejo CA 18 years and have never seen something that shrewd. We as Realtors have a duty to look out for the community during there home purchase  "Not" take advantage of a first time home buyer.  I mentioned to that Broker "Hey" why are you charging a ridiculous fee like that and of coarse all it did was make her angry. So next time your making a Vallejo CA home purchase make sure your representation is not charging you for anything because they should not be and if they are legally I suppose they could but there are 80% of the Realtors out there who wont so contact Tim Garton Re/Max Vallejo 707-315-5555 when buying your next Vallejo CA home because you wont have to pay his Brokerage anything if you are a home buyer.

Hello Tim - buyer beware - indeed.  It's crazy to see what goes on "out there".

Tim, we see $500 "admin fees" charged to clients on both sides here.   That should be part of what we receive.
