I use my broker’s own site since Redfin is not available, and Trulia is a little shaky. We put in a formal back up offer, which was apparently ‘verbally’ presented to the owner, and immediately rejected out of hand. Both the other buyer’s broker and listing agent work out of the same office, and strangely after all the fuss I made, the property still remains pending continue to show. I suppose I could insist that the written offer is presented to the owner and ask for written acknowledgement?
My broker has checked the listing history and can’t find any evidence that it was removed. We’ve contacted the local A of R to see it there are glitches or loopholes in the system. Everyone wants me to think I’m senile, but it is such a tiny area of some 20-30 properties, I pretty much know everyone my heart.
