You need to ask more of your agent and get involved! Don’t just sit back and expect everyone to be thinking about your house. This is one lesson I have learned in my REO purchase experience. Put pressure on those involved and be proactive.
I don’t care if I offended my agent but I went as far as contacting the asset management company to see what was the holdup and regularly called my loan office and processor to see if they needed anything from me or waiting for anything in particular from the seller. I found the listing agent to be completely worth less after the negotiation process once we agreed on a price that was last we heard the listing agent theoretically speaking.
My attitude was….This my house I’m buying I really don’t care if I brother people or seen as that annoying buyer in fact this is what I wanted to achieve
You may ask why use an agent…..In the end my agent was my home buying friend and physiologist that always assured me that this was a great deal and that other entire entire BS that kept me going!!!!
As SD R mention in the beginning my lender was waiting about 11 days for the seller to open the escrow account during the period the seller asked for a 17 day close..?
Also ask your agent to request for more time if you need in closing and that $100 a day thing …ask they give you an extension on that also …..The negotiation doesn’t end on the price
