Comment of the Week

"I would [...] suggest that you remind the Listing Agent who is refusing to present your offer since you wrote them on 'other forms' that not only are they opening themselves up to reprimand by the BRE, but they certainly are opening themselves up to a potential Lawsuit by their Client (as well as possibly by your client) especially if your offer ends up being 'better' – their ignoring the Fiduciary Responsibility for their client will certainly end up harming them. Additional note – be sure to get their refusal in writing!

But, before you sue them, contact their Managing Broker – I would bet a dollar to a donut that their Managing Broker will accept your forms! If that individual who is refusing these forms is a Broker, then they [certainly have] no business being in the Real Estate Business!"
