I agree with @Sandy Blanton...the agent's broker obviously is charging him an admin fee for the office support he gets - and he is trying to pass that on to you.

Sandy Blanton yes I am referring to a client we currently have listed as a short sale.

Hi, I live in a sponsored unit in an NYC apartment building and my ceiling and bedroom walls started leaking right after Hurricane Sandy (Oct 24) as the person living above me forgot to close his taps and left for a couple of days.

Sandy, I'm posting to put this onn my discussions, my first post of the day was arond 5 am, I'm outa here, this is a long and could be an involved thread.

Originally posted by Sandy Blanton:Virtually no listing contract contains an out for a seller for "contingencies."

On the other hand, if California is anything like Florida, Sandy Blanton has the right idea...out quick, and another eviction on their record to warn the next landlord.

I haven't had a "for rent" sign out since before Hurricane Sandy (Nov 2012), and I'm getting phone calls from people looking for a rental near me based on their getting my number from my signs that WERE out like 6 months back!

Once you are in the chain of title, even for one minute, you are 100% liable for the cost of cleaning-up soil and/or groundwater contamination unless you had a proper Phase I performed.

I have 3 deals in my pipeline that have reverse mortgages. 2 are probate deals where the owner is deceased. 1 is an owner whose house was trashed by Hurricane Sandy, has medical issues and has moved out of the home leaving it vacant.My understanding about reverse mortgages is that FHA covers the default amount?
