Doug and Bonnie Laux were Realtors I used to purchase two homes in Arizona. I am just writing this to address the other person's complaint and to give my own two cents.
First, if Ophelia (the other reviewer on Rip-Off Report), was already working with a Realtor- and she found a home "on her own"- Doug was right to call the builder and demand his commission. That's the way real estate law works.
Otherwise, you have people who employ a real estate agent to find a home, then work behind the agent's back. What about all the hard work they already did looking for you? If Ophelia would have just contacted her Realtor and mentioned the new build, then there would have been no problem. It's not the Realtors fault that the consumer doesn't understand real estate law.
Now with that said, I want to write about "forcing religion on people."
I would never choose to work with these Realtors again, for that very reason. Bonnie is the type of person that says "praise Jesus" everytime she hears good news. She is very, very pushy about their religious beliefs. I don't care what man-in-the-clouds you believe in, but I don't believe your stuff.
Just leave your "god" out of my real estate transaction.
Other than the pushy religious crap, they were very good Realtors. If you are a born-again Christian, and you're always saying things like "praise Jesus"-- you will probably love these people.
