So you girls are never going to believe this but last night at 10..i get a call from my realtor. she says....Donna....I told you this was your house. The other buyers pulled out.
And you will never believe why....
The sellers agent brought in a few of her clients (buyers) in to view the house....they offered what we did unwillingly...but the agent would have gotten 4% comission if they bought and only 2% if we bought because she had to split it with my realtor. So she told her sellers to accept their offer and reject ours. So then cornered her buyers ...put them in a panic to get a conventional 20% down mortgage which they clearly did not have the money to do...they panicked and after all that crap we went through...their agent came back begging us to reconsider and buy the house.
So now....we play a little hard ball with the negotiating. because i dont plan on letting this slide. Talk about being dirty. all that heartache over comission for the realtor.
My realtor is PISSED. She said this is horrible business practice. she even told us to consider walking away for good. So tonight, we are still having the engineer come...but we are having them sign a binder that we get reimbursed if this happens again.
