Flag and Conned,
Other sdrealtor here (there are two of us). I can completely understand how overwhelming the whole RE process is. For example, i find the act of signing loan documents completely unnerving. Even after walking numerous clients through the process and signing them at least a dozen times myself, the process is always the same. You sit down with good intentions of reviewing the documents but at some point in the process it becomes too much to continue and everyone and I mean everyone capitulates. You ask question after question but eventually you get worn out and relie on the mortgage broker to be honest and thorough to some degree. This much I understand and can see how so many got conned by slick operators.
What I am curious about is how many properties were involved for each of you? Did you buy one, two, three or maybe more? If it’s 1 or 2, I think you’ll get more sympathy. If on the otherhand, you bought a handfull in a short period of time, well I’d have to agree with the others that you fell off the stupid truck.
