She allegedly called her realtor and said she wanted out of the contract. He tried to bully her, threatening that she would lose her deposit given to the title co, that she was “making the biggest mistake of her life”, etc.
She told him that she’d rather lose $1500 than make a $205K mistake.”
So, she drove over to his office to pick up her paperwork. This guy had copies of all of her personal records. After making her wait for over an hour, he finally handed the paperwork over.
Guess what? i dont think she was even in escrow. Just as I suspected, he could not find someone to underwrite the loan. There was a notice dated May 30 that said, “cannot underwrite.”
She also found that the realtor had forged her name on a number of documents – including a waived right to inspection and something agreeing to a loan with 7% interest.
Needless to say my friend is pretty shaken by all of this. SHe keeps saying, “but he told me he was going to take care of me and look out for my interests.”
LV Renter, I passed on your feedback. She still wants to buy. Her next step is to go to her credit union – someone there offered to help her try to get the $1500 back and look for a loan.
This is all so weird. This slimebag is a friend of her family’s and goes to the same church. Guess he’s missing a moral center. Probably goes to church to network and find other ‘marks.’
