Little Lady! I had bad experience for selling my house since the buyer lied. My agent did not do his job to check and verify the seller. I counted on my agent since I paid him commission. But the reality is that most agents don’t do their jobs, some even lied also in order to get their commissions.
May be you have a very good agent? My advice: Have your agent to confirm the source of fund/ down payment, credit & income. During the house bubble, everybody can get the loans. But not anymore!!!!
