Yesterday while driving to meet a buyer in downtown Bremerton my cell phone rang. I debated whether to answer because I didn't have my hands free devise. Ooops! Don't tell my son the City of Duvall Police Officer - lol! Oh, that would be ok, he would just laugh!
Anyway, I answered the phone and there was a man on the line that very politely asked me if I had a few moments. I told him I was driving to an appointment but I did have just a couple of minutes. He told me he found me on the Internet and would like to ask me a few questions. He said he was trying to buy a short-sale property. I found this a tad odd. So I asked him if he was in a contract represented by a real estate agent. He said he was. I politely told him that I would be unable to help him because he has a real estate agent. He proceeded to tell me he didn't believe what he was being told by his agent. All I could do was urge him to contact the agents Broker.
I felt so helpless but I was not going to give advice on a real estate transaction where I was not involved. I knew he was a little disappointed but he understood. I felt so helpless.
I guess he found me too late. Maybe if this deal doesn't go together he will give me a call on his next transaction if he isn't under a buyer brokerage agreement.
Jerry, I wish you all the luck! I am sorry I couldn't help.
