Be forewarned if you do business with First Team Real Estate in Laguna Niguel, Ca
Posted on July 10th, 2009 2 commentsCompany Name:: First Team Real Estate, Laguna Niguel, California
Warning to those of you interested in buying properties listed by First Team Real Estate in California. A property that was listed in Garden Valley, Ca. for $85,000 (Spanish Flat) by First Team Real Estate was withdrawn from the market after I went to the trouble to make an offer of $86,000 …which was slightly more than the asking price. I was pre-approved by a bank to make this purchase. The agent listing the property for First Team R.E. never did respond to my offer one way or the other to let me know if it was accepted or not. I became concerned when I noticed that the property was withdrawn from the online multiple listings. After a week long wait for some response from First Team, which was very stressful, my own agent finally got ahold of the listing agent. When my agent finally made contact, the First Team agent seemed disinterested in our complaint of not being notified of the status of our offer and the status of the property . My agent told him he was rude and inconsiderate not to mention the fact that his ethics stunk. My agent was concerned that First Team had made him look bad in front of his own client, me. My agent stated that people like this First Team agent give the real estate industry a bad name due to the way they handle potential buyers and in their unwillingness to communicate with other realtors. The First Team agent lamely explained to my agent that he decided to pull the property off the active list and auction the property instead of accepting my offer. He never did apologize for ignoring the offer on the table and we will never know if he even gave the offer to the property owner to decide if they wanted to accept it or not. So be forewarned. If you don’t want to risk wasting your valuable time and be treated like you don’t matter, then stay away from First Team Real estate .
