Author.

Rip-Off Report No.:

ARBITRATOR DECISION

Bruce Meyerson,

Arbitrator

Complainant, Savvaidis & Associates, has challenged the truthfulness of certain statements (each, a Statement) initially posted by Author on the Ripoff Report website at www.ripoffreport.com on March 27, 2009, Ripoff Report Nos.: 438193, 634392 and 632996 (the Report). Both the Complainant and the Author (together, the Parties) have agreed to submit the dispute to the Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration.

Each Statement challenged by the Complainant has been considered, together with any Witness Statements and Documents provided by the Complainant and the Author, for determination of the truth or falsity of the Statement. Under the Ripoff Report VIP Arbitration Rules each Report is presumed to be true unless rebutted by a preponderance of the evidence. A preponderance of the evidence means a showing that a challenged statement is more likely false than it is true.

Each challenged Statement is reiterated below together with the Arbitrators comments and ruling:

1.

Statement: Savvaidis & Associates sold the Author, using its own lawyers, a house with nonbuilding compliance and without plans.

Discussion: The parties dispute the role of Savvaidis & Associates. The evidence indicates that Savvaidis & Associates served as a real estate agent in the transaction, not the seller. The attorney has submitted a statement indicating that she was the attorney for the Author, not Savvaidis & Associates. The listing of the property states that the structure when built will have two floors. When built the home had three floors, according to the Author, causing the structure to be out of compliance with applicable laws, resulting in a penalty. Plans were to be provided by the builder, not Savvaidis & Associates, acting as the agent.

Ruling: I find this statement false.

2.

Statement: Call to say we would have to have an additional floor due to the height of the retaining walls or we could not have the villa we had chosen, after a long discussion we agreed to the additional floor and pool at a cost of 60,000 Euro. The house was then to be a five bed room villa.

Discussion: Because the Complainant has the burden of proof, it is up to the Complainant to provide evidence to contradict the facts alleged by the Author which are presumed to be true.

Ruling: As to this statement, the Complainant has not produced evidence to sustain its burden of proof.

3.

Statement: The report we have still yet to see nor have we seen the aerial photographs and as yet an original bill of any sort this cost 400 euro as yet for nothing.

Discussion: The report referred to in this statement is an engineers report. Because the Complainant has the burden of proof, it is up to the Complainant to provide evidence to contradict the facts alleged by the Author which are presumed to be true

Ruling: The Complainant has not provided a submission from the engineer that the Author has received a copy of the report. As to this statement, the Complainant has not produced evidence to sustain its burden of proof.

4.

Statement: The house papers I have not seen relating to the purchase of the house, its land and areas should have been given at the beginning of the purchase agreement and we were not even in receipt of a tax number or residency card (blue card) and we had never been given a contract of purchase.

Discussion: The Complainant states that this statement relates to an agreement with the developer.

Ruling: Because the Complainant has not provided any submission from the developer, the Complainant has not produced evidence to sustain its burden of proof on this statement.
