Robert Jarvis Signature Properties: You're in the business, but you're a TRAINWRECK!

You're in the Business - but you're a trainwreck!
How many times have you shown a short sale that is "agent owned"?
How often have you written an offer on the agent owned property?

Here's a little story that reminds me of some of the political train wrecks that so frequently come from our great state...

You submit the offer to the listing agent. The listing agent accepts
BUT all correspondence come from the agent owner instead of the
listing agent?

You try to include the listing agent in all [most] of the communication, and
all that all falls on deaf ears.

The agent owner wants to be in control of everything.

Your buyers like the property, maybe it isn't their first choice, and they
certainly aren't married to the property, but they decided to go ahead - full
speed ahead - fully dedicated to the process.

The seller is really creating havoc on the deal... coming real close to
killing the deal... [and making my job virtually impossible]

I have a recommendation, if you're in the business, and you're in the market
as well, please stay as far away from the deal as you can. Hire your
listing agent and allow your listing agent to do what they do best.

Step aside. This will allow you control your emotions [instead of the
deal] as you maneuver through what MIGHT be your last "save grace" in this deal.

You're playing Russian Roulette with your credit.
You're running the risk of chasing away the only buyer willing to put up with your antics and need to be in control.
You could be facing foreclosure if you screw this one up!
You are a train wreck waiting to happen!

If you've hired the best agent to represent you AND you have all the
right negotiators playing on your side, THEN you should already understand the
importance of letting the professionals do what they do best... and that's
represent you!

Or if you prefer [after all this IS ILLINOIS], then you could follow along
with Rod Blagojevich Trial and keep sticking your nose in there... But you
might not get the second that chance for another trial...

Please think about it before its too late...

PS. I hope you
