Do you have a property for sale with Agnes Dowdy??? If so here is some interesting info. They are not members of any local association of Realtors and this means that your property is not in the MLS (multiple listing service) which means there are hundreds of Realtors that do not even know your property is for sale meaning there are hundreds of buyers out there that will never look at your property. Also 95% of people that are looking for property start looking online and by not being members of a local mls your property is not going on websites like realtor.com, yahoo, or any of the other nationwide websites that are linked to the mls. This also means that basically that unless someone drives by your property they will never know it is for sale. Just think about it how many buyers will actually do a search for Agnes Dowdy's website? not many, most go to the mls or other nationwide sites. You might ask why they are not members? Well after a lengthly conversation with someone from the Lynchburg Assn. today I found out they get alot of complaints from actual Realtors about their bad business practices and by not being members the Lynchburg Association can not take any disiplinary action against them These people may sound nice when you talk to them but they are scumbags.As a seller you are going to pay alot if your property sells. So why not get the most for your money and use a Realtor instead of someone that just has a real estate license. There is a huge difference. If you want your property to sell dump these losers and get a professional. If you want to keep your property stay with Agnes Dowdy. They lead you to believe they do as much as a Realtor does but they cant and do not, wasting months of your time and costing you the possible sale of your home.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, DISGRUNTLED REALTOR

#2REBUTTAL Individual responds

This response is not to "John" who is listed as the author of this report, but to ANTHONY ALBANESE OF CENTURY 21 ALL SERVICE in Moneta VA.

Anthony is a disgruntled agent who has broken so many ethics and codes that he is simply pitiful. He tried to sell a property I had listed and just couldn't get it done! I let him try, but then he returned an earnest money deposit without the proper release and now is upset because he may be sued by the seller who is a big foreclosure asset company. Then, I let him try to sell it AGAIN, but he just doesn't know how to write a contract or follow directions! So I finally  just sold it myself-I couldn't wait forever!- and now he is so upset!

He also advertised my listing in the newspaper as if it were his (which is illegal and shows Improper Dealing and Material Misrepresentation-you will be hearing more about that soon, Anthony!). His broker will also most likely be audited due to his (mis)handling of escrow monies. I bet your boss won't be happy about THAT!

Once all of the complaints are reviewed that are against him, he probably won't be allowed to sell any more anyway.

POOR ANTHONY, I feel so sorry for you! Why hide behind an alias on a site like this? Just accept defeat and try to move on. Was this to be your only sale this year or something??

 No alias for me! Authored by:
