Realtor complaint update and timeline

Just a bit of backstory in case anyone is wondering. I purchased a house that was in a different state through a friend who was a realtor. The entire process was pretty stressful. From being told that I was costing her money for asking for video walkthroughs of homes, to being told I made her look like a liar for having second thoughts on a home, to flat out telling me how negative I am for finding faults with homes. Oh and deleting her facebook realtor page after I posted a review. This was in Texas in case anyone is wondering.

Here's a screenshot of the original reddit post (I deleted it a while ago) :

and if you're really bored, here's the original post with all the comment replies (it's a very long screenshot):

​

- Purchased the home around October 2020

- October 2020 Realtor stops responding to me and removes me from all social media once I start showing her clear issues with the house that were not addressed in the inspection.

- December 2020 I submit a complaint through TREC. I filled out their form and attached my complaint. You can read it here if you're bored (I removed names and links to the photos). The formatting is a bit wonky since I copied and pasted it to google docs but I mostly just explained my experience, and provided them with links to screenshots and audio messages of those conversations.

- December 2020 I receive an email letting me know they received my complaint and explaining the entire process

- January 2021 I receive an email letting me know my complaint has been transferred to field investigators and they will contact me when they're ready to speak to me (I never heard from them). The investigators did open the inspection report for the house through google docs though, so I figured they'd contact me soon enough but I never heard from them.

- July 2021 I receive the determination saying they feel no action needs to be taken and I should hire an attorney if I feel the need to file a civil suit.

​

That's basically it. With my dog being sick and my own issues to deal with I don't think this is something I'm going to pursue any further. I don't even know if there's anything to pursue. I figure with everything I submitted maybe there was at least a valid ethics complaint or something but I guess not. Would have been nice to read the realtors response at least.

I'd leave a review for this realtor but I honestly can't find anywhere to do so. I'm able to find her on different sites, but no option to leave a review.

​

Anyway, thanks for reading if you got this far. Hopefully some of you can learn from my mistakes.

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear

Fast Rising HOA Fees on NYC Condo, No Budget Provided

My wife and I are first time homeowners and could use some advice on a situation we've been having with our management company and Board. We bought a condo in Brooklyn two years ago, and since then our HOA fees have climbed dramatically. In August of last year, our fees were increased by ~30% and just yesterday we received notice that this new figure would be increased by 16% as of June 1st. The by-laws for our building state that ten days before such a change goes into effect, the Board must provide unit owners with the itemized budget upon which the new numbers were based. This didn't happen last year, and when I asked the management company about it, they just kept vaguely insisting the Board had done due diligence. After I kept pressing, they finally sent a budget that was several years old, so obviously not the one that the new numbers were based on. When I asked the management company for contact information for the Board to get further clarification, I was told that th

How to create fidelity investments current bank statement for lender during escrow

I transferred a certain amount to my bank account to complete the minimum down payment required. The bank wants a current statement of the transaction. Unfortunately, fidelity only does quarterly statements so a December statement is not available and we are due to close next week. I called fidelity and they they can only provide a letter but the bank said that won’t suffice. Any way I can find or make one of my own that has my account number/name along with all the recent month’s activities? submitted by /u/bodaciousbeans [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/zmnnqo/how_to_create_fidelity_investments_current_bank/
