Well, I must admit that your point is well taken. I myself see very little to gain if the agent is lying as in this market my first instinct was also to go on to the next property.
BTW, it is not an REO, nor a new home purchase. I countered again with what will be our final offer and a 24 hour expiration. If they actually have someone who is willing to pay more and is as rock-solid as we are then God bless ’em, and we’ll move on to the next property.
In any event, unless these people do something more to aggravate me it is unlikely that I will make a claim against the agent for the potential RESPA violation. Life’s too short and I am not as vindictive as I used to be.
