Give me a break.

That's a load of crap, to put it nicely.

Have you ever viewed the disciplinary action page for real estate agents on the state's website?

Have you read some of the stories about Maryland real estate agents that have went to jail for fraud? They're not even on the page; they just simply and quietly revoke their license.

Go view it and get back with me.

:whistle:

You were abused by real estate agents as a child, weren't you? That at least makes your animus towards them and their profession understandable.

Are you saying what I wrote above is not true?

:popcorn:

No. I am saying it seems you were abused by real estate agents as a child and that would explain your animus towards them and their industry.

I mean, you know a lot of detail that the average Joe and Jane wouldn't. Unless they had a real hard on for them. So, I am speculating they done you wrong somewhere along the line.

Maybe I thoroughly studied the housing industry and its inner workings before I made the biggest investment of my life instead of trusting someone that has to take one college class to sell it to me.

There's a low bar to entry and it's very loosely regulated.

Being that you're so convinced I was abused by real estate agents as a child: what exactly are you implying that they did to me?

Are they pervs?

Did they molest me?

Steal my lunch money?

Sell my parents a house while hiding toxic environmental details?

I think A_Boy was abused by lots of different people as a child; there does not appear to be anybody left out of his hate demographic.

Come back Larry!

You're not attacking me because real estate agents are plastered all over your wife's website here, and because they're a big source of her income, are you?

Not arguing with your point. Far from it. Just an observation.

Of course there's also the problem that real estate agents will sometimes make sure the offer that gives them the best commission is the one the bank sees, and never even present other offers.

:popcorn:

You are so WRONG!!! That is totally against the law and agents DO go to jail for it. Along with getting HUGE HUGE fines and loosing their license.

That is when the realtor gets reported to the Real Estate Commission and possibly loses their license.

Give me a break.

Have you ever taken the boards to become a licensed real estate agent? I think not. They are NOT easy and it is regulated by more then one entity.

Pssst:

Hey eff-tards...

Ask the Real Estate Commission what they did about this guy?

Ask them when they took his license to operate as a real estate broker?

Now you really look like the true ass you are. This guy was a LAWYER. NOT A R.E. BROKER. He is not required to hold a realtor license to practice law and do closings on real estate properties for his clients!!! :dork::loser::loser:

Exhibit B:

From the comments section:

"So, WaPo... is/was Jenkins living in the house? Just wondering.

This is a waterfront house that has been on and off the market since Aug., 2005. The most recent list price was $330,000, and the house came off the market again in early May of this year. Is the company that had the house listed for sale up until May, and NOT involved in this property transfer, a victim of Jenkins' shenanigans, also?

According to the multiple list and MD tax record, less than two months after the house came off the market in May, the deed transfer from the seller to Frank Jenkins was recorded at the courthouse - sale price $300,000. And after being on and off the market for four years and finally selling for $300,000, he's going to FLIP it and sell it for $500,000? Really? How much money was he planning to put into this property to make it worth half a million dollars? And whose money was he going to spend?

There could be a question as to when the property was really transferred (settlement date.) The recordation date at the courthouse is not necessarily the settlement date. Has anyone looked for the HUD1 - the standard federal settlement sheet - and checked the settlement date? Who handled the settlement? The lawyer Frank Jenkins?

WaPo reporter... Did you know that Jenkins is also a real estate broker of record, (although probably not for long after MD DLLR and the MD Real Estate Commission gets through with him)? Jenkins has some really good, decent people working under his broker's license. The disgrace he has brought upon those who worked with him is a d@mned shame.

Dig deeper, WaPo, dig deeper."

It makes absolutely no sense you had to go thru what you went thru. I have a co-worker who's daughter placed the winning bid on a forclosure auction house back in October. She figured she'd be in the house by the end of December. Here we are the end of January and she is several promises of a closing date later and still has no clue when it will actually be hers.

IF you buy a forclosure make sure that there is a clear title.. Two days before closing they were advised that there was not a clear title... So they didn't settle until 2 months later so it's kind of hit or miss.. The price they paid for the house was a steal literally but at the same time it was a pain in the a*&. I'm not sure how the title works in a short sale

Actually, you should buy title insurance. Not the title insurance you are required to buy for the lender, but your own policy. There's a difference.

C-A-P-S CAPS CAPS CAPS!
I sold my house as a short sale in 2009. The buyer (who, ironically, is a friend) only had to wait 3 weeks for approval from my bank. My real estate agent was shocked that 1) they accepted the offer and 2) they approved it so fast. So, maybe it just depends on the bank?
