I will balk at any ridiculous fees, such as courier fees.I will balk at someone trying to make me buy Title Ins,paying lawyer fees etc etc .If you bought a bank owned property with Cash,you can really help me with what fees you encountered .I hate getting ripped off by bullsh.t fees and useless lawyerswho are not representing me .What will I be looking at in closing fees on a Cash deal ???

If you need to skirt the earnest money issue or try to hide the amount, you might want to consider a different approach or presentation to the seller.

There is no since in trying to hide the fact that I am interested in making a dollar on every transaction I am involved with.

I just had a freakish weekend showing a house--the first applicant was a very attractive woman who worked for a cosmetic Surgery clinic -- she had obviously taken advantage of the employee discount--she had a very nice look and way about her- & her children were nice too--she was evasive about her credit -she said it wasn't "too good"----upon getting the screening back,the records showed she had undisclosed bankruptcy, recent eviction--she said that was her sister's eviction-- it was" just in her name", the LL name she gave me was not the property owner listed on the county records--"she said that was because of a divorce and he was hiding from his wife", the child support financial records to support her income I asked her to provide "couldn't be faxed because something was wrong with the fax machine at the clinic", and she had 30 recent collections as well as 4 new court judgements-- these were" just loans and things, so how does that affect me renting your house?"

Not that you would try to hide something on purpose but when you're new things can easily get overlooked and come back to bite you later.

Why would you hide your intentions?

Locally (SWFL) since Indymac was taken down, their Lis Pendens filings are up, I guess Sheila Bair found the closet full of bad paper, they were hiding

If the reason is legitimate and not something made up to hide assets just have them disclose it in there hardship letter.

berber cleans just as good, I get a dark tan or a brown mixed with tan so it can hide stains that wont come out.

If 90% of homes are selling at 90% of asking price then why should your agent hide that from you...it's fact not opinion.
