OT 19: Masks On, Clothes Off, Right Hand Left Titty

[troyguitar]

They don't want to sell. They're coming up with random excuses. They want to wait for more offers over the weekend but don't want to admit it for some reason. I'd have more respect for them if they were honest. Now I fucking hate these people... but they still have the only house for sale in the neighborhood so they win.

Time to go murder someone in that house and it’ll reduce the value. Under ask!

Handcrafted abstract murals made with organic red paint by a local artisan would only increase the value.

Why does it matter if your bank is national?

No deal. They don't like that our bank is national. Fuck this planet.

Realtor wants us to do everything over again with a local to them credit union which conveniently is 2.9% APR instead of 2.4% costing us tens of thousands of dollars.

Presumably meanwhile someone else buys the place anyway. I've just about had it.

Up the offer by 5k and give them 24 hrs to respond if they still don’t want it, fuck em. Why in the fuck do they know about your bank?

It's another form of collusion. We ran into it on our Detroit house. They (realtor) wanted us to use a certain bank "so the process goes smoother". Being naive, I applied for a mortgage there and fortunately the rate was the same, so I went for it. I bet I paid more in closing costs as kick backs or something, but whatever. Just more of the game.

I will say that as a seller, if someone throws in an offer from some out of state podunk bank, it gives me that they actually can follow through with the deal...unless they're from that exact area. The people that bought our last house were pre-approved through some random bank in NJ. They were from MI, and when we asked, her sister was a mortgage broker and found them the best deal. Right on, story checks out.

I had no clue what my buyer’s bank was. I probably could have asked my realtor, but there’s no answer I would have heard that made me turn an offer down that I can think of.

I’m guessing Troy is right that they and their realtor are just shitbags trying to buy time for higher offers.

Pro Bono DFD letter sent to seller and realtor on behalf of Mahtroy so he doesn’t kill anyone in this process?

Zillow is fucking retarded. Tried opening Tory's link and zillow refuses to open anything other than Charlotte, NC. Even if I sign out of my account.

Troy gonna call a coupla hard, pipe-hittin' mf-ers, who'll go to work on the homes there with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. You hear me talkin', Floriduhboy? He ain't through with you by a damn sight.

You didn't take a look at the buyer's pre approval with the offer?

If you're facing multiple offers, chosing one financed by a bank you're familiar with might offer a bit more piece of mind that things will go through easier than another.

That said, money talks. I wouldn't decline a high offer that was otherwise good just because of the bank

We have a contract in place that makes the buyer liable for any losses between their offer and a fall out due to financing if written into the offer. Something like conditional upon financing by ____ date is all that it takes, and is usually within five business days of acceptance. It makes absolutely no difference to the seller who the bank is, any fallout after said date will automatically put the buy in a legal hot seat.

I agree with the group that this is a copout to see how the next few days goes, and bring new offers to the table. A risky game, and it is well known that bird in hand is worth two in tree.

[Irish]

A lot of people are just about all this especially those who have lived in their home for decades.... It defies logic but if they have to choose between two close offers they reject the one that "smells funny to them"

[Irish]

The olds that I deal with are famous for this phenomenon..... We sometimes take care of them for years with never an issue ....and yet they still are untrusting when it comes to finance.....

$20k over asking offer sent out.

Not personally, but my REA did. I guess he would have alerted me if the bank seemed sketch, but he’s someone I knew personally and trusted so since he was good with their bank I didn’t ask to look. I’m sure it was on paperwork as I signed it, but again, he was good so I was good.
