Complaint Review: Keller Williams - Ypsilanti Michigan

I am not sure what the real estate laws are in Michigan but some states (North Carolina where I live being one of them), despite all the new disclosure laws put into place to protect buyers, still operate under the common-law docterine of caveat emptor - let the buyer beware. The condition of the house was a material fact that should have been disclosed to you so you should have recourse with the agent and firm but you would have to to check with the state real estate commission to see who to file a complaint with and file a fraud case in court. Besides that though, making an investment in something as expensive as a house isn't something that should be done strictly on the word of a real estate agent (or anyone else for that matter) unless you have a long standing relationship of trust.

If I understand you correctly, you used this outfit as a Buyers Agent? Did you look at the property before purchasing it and inform the seller of the issues and list them as contingencies of the sale? If you did, why did you still close on a house that was covered in urine and feces and not what was promised. You would have had every reason to not close the deal, and they would have had to rectify the situation per the contract, or you walk. Plain and simple. I recently sold a house. The buyer's agent requested three items be addressed. I agreed to two of the items. They then agreed that the two were OK. I hired the proper people to make the repairs, and allowed the buyer and his agent to come back and ensure the repairs were made. Case closed. If you just took the realtors word for it, you're plain stupid. A lot of today's realtors are yesterday's used car salesmen, telemarketers, and anybody else with no real skills or education looking to cash in on the real estate boom. Fortunately, the end is near, and a lot of these jokers will probably be selling Tupperware door to door. My guess though is you too were just looking to make a quick buck yourself.

Having purchased and sold properties many times, I can't imagine ANYONE purchasing a property sight unseen!! If you chose not to do a home inspection or a walkthru..then that is YOUR problem and has absolutely NOTHING to do with your realtor or broker. If your purchasing an investment property (tennants) then your mortgage lender would have REQUIRED pictures of both the exterior and interior of the property before approving the loan.
