Stay away from them! Dishonest real estate brokers. We have dealt with Pavan Johar of Lynda Baker Realty. We will seek legal costs reimbursements from him. Many times he prefers calling because there are certain things he doesn't want in writing, just so he can deny them later.
My boyfriend and I put an offer down for an apartment at lower than asking price. While we understand the seller have the right to accept our offer or no, the broker communicated with us that our offer was accepted. he continued to have open houses for the property. When we asked him what would happen if he got higher offers, he said that as long as we proceeded in good faith, we'd still be first in line. We hired a lawyer who spend a considerable number of hours doing diligence. When the contract was almost ready, the broker called us and told us that we either up or offer or we get dropped. Classic switch and bait! He could have told us the seller would like to consider other offers before accepting ours, instead of rushing to accept and then backing out, having us incur the legal fees.
So this is a preview of what's expected of them if you work with them. read more
