Had my realtor removed from my condo buy and fired from her company. Should I also report her to the Texas Real Estate Commission?

I’m looking for advice on what I should do next, if anything. I’m thinking of letting this issue go but I had some good advice on my last post so I thought I’d ask this question here. I didn’t realize what she did was so unethical, but I do now.

My husband (H) and I were in the process of buying a condo for our son to rent back to us. We were using a friend who had started as a realtor about a year ago. We were her first home purchase last year when we bought our SFH and also helped us buy a condo 6 months ago. My husband became friends with (D*) about a year and a half ago and I have since become friends with her as well.

I found out H was cheating on me with someone else. Basically a sugar daddy type situation. While I’m digging into this, I found out H has been sending D a LOT of doordashes behind my back. They involve about 30 deliveries of food, groceries and flowers to the tune of about $1700 all while she my agent. H came clean about it but D never would. She denied and lied over and over again even when I had evidence. I can’t prove there was a sexual affair, but H admitted to an emotional one with her, at least on his side. My 30 year marriage is completely over.

This brings me to right now. Realtors in my last post told me how unethical it is for realtors to take gifts from clients and how because of that, she was not looking out for my best interests during these transactions. I called her broker agency and spoke with the owner and she immediately removed D as my realtor for the condo buy and I resigned a contract with the owner. We went through with the sale (not looking for advice on whether it was a good idea or not). After it was completed, the owner told me D is getting fired and I believe her.

This brings me to now. Is D being fired enough or should I also report her to the commission? I don’t know if what D did is enough to bring it to that level. I don’t believe D’s broker knew this was going on and I wonder if reporting this will drag her agency into it. I’m not looking to hurt her company. Or, is getting fired enough and I should let this go? I appreciate any helpful advice.

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...

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/

Co-signing as non-primary resident - effect on size of required downpayment & first time home buyer status?

Contemplating co-signing on a house with my mom and splitting the mortgage payment. I currently have a significantly higher income and much better credit than her. I'm looking at potential home costs and related downpayments but have difficulty using some of the online estimators. From my perspective, this would be somewhat of an investment purchase (I intend to stay in my current location in a different state and contribute to the mortgage), however, for my mom, this would be a primary residence. For purposes of the downpayment size and the type of mortgage arrangement, would it be an investment property or a primary residence? Many thanks for any help. submitted by /u/piercalicious [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/km4hvl/cosigning_as_nonprimary_resident_effect_on_size/
