Thank you all, I was just trying to gain information in preparation to list my home. Uniting kindred spirits was just an added bonus. Keep up the good work. Don - Thu Jan 17 2008, 07:37
Thanks Roberta, I still have to go with my best instincts and full disclosure. Even if I had time to research real estate case law, it looks like I could still be victimized by the discretion of a tile or escrow company abuse of fine print - Wed Jan 16 2008, 12:21
Thank you all for your excellent and timely responses to my question. CJ, is that up to $1000 figure you state, put in writing in your listing agreement ? If so, I wouldn't expect it to affect your marketing budget. I would agree to reimburse for any expenditure above and beyond our agreement if it was mutually agreed upon as neseccary to effect the successful sale of my home. That said I think Dale is giving sound advice. If I do my due diligence in hiring a competent and proffesssional listing agent. I should not have to expect any surprizes. I will insist on full disclosure as you have so eloquently expressed - Wed Jan 16 2008, 12:06
