Poor representation and unethical practice

Realtor, Linda Z of ReMax, Bryn Mawr, ,PA was only concerned with her financial gain and not our best interest in representing us in the sale of our condo. Examples: 1) The agreement of sale was written with the potential buyer being able to do construction on the property prior to the actual sale. Linda Z advocated this and tried to get this through without our knowledge. 2)Linda Z went on vacation and did not put our pending sale transaction in the hands of another experienced realtor but rather let her assistant (who, though nice enough, was unknowledgeable and inefficient). 3) Much to our dismay, the original sale did not take place. Why? The buyer was another realtor who was unable to secure a mortgage regardless of the fact that the sale agreement did not have a mortgage contingency clause. BUT, there was a loophole that both Linda Z and her realtor-buyer knew about — and we did not. The loophole pertained to paperwork from the condominium association. Linda Z informed me at the time of signing the agreement of sale that the buyer had a 5-day window to negate the purchase but she assured me that the required paperwork would be given to the purchaser in a timely manner. NOW HERE\’S THE KICKER: Both Linda Z and the realtor-buyer knew that the condo assoc. routinely submits one page of the paperwork one day prior to the sale date. Therefore, that was the purchaser\’s excuse for not showing up at settlement. 4) Linda Z was incommunicado throughout this troubling time, but conveniently, was able to communicate with her assistant, the head of the ReMax office, and — inappropriately — with a member of my family with whom she should not have been discussing this matter. In summation, Linda Z was completely unsatisfactory at her job but more importantly, she was UNETHICAL in her dealings. BUYER and SELLER BEWARE.

Broker of Record for 2 franchise companies????

If ERA and BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS are really two separate real estate companies owned by the same holding why do they have the same broker of record, Mr. Robert Albanese? The companies are selling franchises to people saying they are not going to make the ERA companies merge but the same guy is the broker??? Seems fishy.

Chelsea Nevius Remax 200

Company Name:: Remax 200 Orlando FL

Chelsea Nevius of Remax 200 in Orlando Florida was presented an offer in which at the time no other offers happened to be pending she delayed the offer time to the time the contract expired and instantly took our offer and shopped it,… to out bid us. Let me state this was an all cash offer she apologized for failure to open her email to see that the offer was presented to her two days prior. Apologizing in my mind on never checking her email in box was proof enough that she is not a aggressive agent who is representing her buyers. She took way to long and in the process made excuses on why the seller had not received it which we as buyers find hard to believe with technology today, and instantly being able to receive, send, and forward contracts. Chelsea seems to us as buyers that she is looking out for her own pocket book not her sellers or they would have had the offer within hours and is not looking out for the buyers since her main goal is to best represent sellers who she has a binding listing agreement with. WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND that anyone BUYING OR SELING A HOME IN THE ORLANDO AREA WOULD NOT DO BUSINESS WITH CHELSEA NEVIUS REALTOR BROKER ASSOCIATE IN ORLANDO WITH REMAX 200 ORLANDO. THEY ARE ONLY LOOKING OUT OR THEMSELVES AND THEIR OWN POCKETS OF CASH. ITS CALLED GREED. LANA LAUDER LAMBERT

Agent leased me a home under construction!!!

Company Name:: Keller Williams Victorville, CA

Real Estate Agent Patricia James-Nix … aka Patti Nix, advertised a home for lease that I signed a lease agreement on and was given a specific move-in date. A few weeks later, I moved everything I owned 2300 miles across the country, only to find that I was scammed!

The agent leased me a home that was under construction and not a liveable home! There were workers on the property performing various construction duties. There was no flooring of any kind. There were no appliances. There were no doors to any room. Painting and finish work had not been done. There were no light fixtures, nor electricity. There seemed to be no furnace or hot water heater.

I was left with nowhere to go, and was forced to return to my home state at tremendous expense! The Real Estate office has REFUSED to even communicate with me and reimburse me for all of my expenses. Don’t do business with these people!

Failla Realty, Inc. requests administrative expense to remove house listing from MLS

I listed my house for sale with Failla Realty, Inc. After 2 months, I decided not to sell my house to allow the market to improve. I requested Failla Realty, Inc. to remove my house listing from MLS and other media. Administrative expense was not discussed when we signed the contract. There was no administrative expense included in the contract. Failla Realty, Inc wants me to pay $1119.98 as administrative expenses in order to remove my house listing from MLS.
