Lincoln Park, MI

I know this guy who needs a job because he can't be making it in the real estate business. First of all we put an offer in on his listing. It took 2 1/2 weeks to get the original offer accepted and there was not one single change.

No counter offers. Nothing. That should have been a clue. Then we gave the mortgage company 45 days to get the deal done. But again when I called the listing agent to schedule the closing it came out that he forgot to schedule the city inspection. This was 40 days into the deal.

He wanted my buyer then to take responsibility for the repairs and the costs because of his failure to order the city inspection. Of course we said no. He got the city inspection done finally. Then this bright real estate agent hired a unlicensed contractor to pour a new piece of concrete. So the city stopped the job. Now he has hired a new contractor and hopefully it will get done. It is only a couple of weeks past the contract date.

So if you are looking for somebody that:

• doesn't respond to emails or phone calls
• or fails to follow up on specific tasks
• or fails to research details of a job
• doesn't know how to negotiate
• procrastinates

this guy is for you. Please hire him and get him out of the real estate business!!!! Save his clients money and other real estate agents grief.
