What is the name of your state?....... Alaska
Hello, I can't find any help. Perhaps we can find some advice here. We have been looking for a house for months, finally found one we both liked..actually my husband loved. We got the realtor and went and looked at the house., I really liked it, told the realitor and the owner. Left and my husband went to see it, he "really" liked it. Okay, what do we do next. Realtor says, ah they donot really want to sell its been on the market for 1.5 years. I though she was kidding or being silly. I said, look the house is for sell we would like to buy it, period. We did the offer, which by the way we had no problem with the sellers price, all we asked was help with closing cost. We were pre-qualified so we gave 1000.00 earnest money. Long time went by and the realtor said the sellers wanted more earnest money..? Okay, we give another 1,000.00 for earnest money, and they refuse to pay any closing cost. Okay, we agree to pay for everything. All this well over a months time this all is taking..we are feeling the realtor is not being honest with us at all. Then the realtor calls and says the seller found another buyer who will pay more. Now..how can the other buyer pay for more if we are paying the price set for the house, the closing cost..inspecter etc..? We know they are not being truthful in all of this and this is very upsetting that we have agreed to all terms..except put it in writing that they could use the garage for two full months after the sell of the home. Mainly because the VA said they would not warranty the loan because of liability concerns..the real estate person said she does it all the time. I said it was not lawful, the owner uses the shop-garage for business purposes. I just didnot want to put everything at risk. So..our perfect home we looked for for so long and tied up another month into all this silly back and forth stuff..and we find, bang..sorry..we found another buyer. When in fact we met their price and then some..anyway. I believe they are both lieing, the realtor and the seller. Anything we can do on this ? Thanks...T. Moore
