I am so angry. So very irritated and annoyed. It's a long story, but I need to vent so here goes.
We've been looking for a house since December. There's one particular area we want to be in, and it's a nice area, but it's more expensive (Tierrasanta). We always seem to be a "day late and a dollar short" when we make offers.
6 weeks ago we put an offer in on a forclosure. 1 week later the realtor for the bank came back and said they need extra paperwork signed etc.. So we signed it all and our realtor faxed it in. 1 week later they said they had multiple offers and gave us the chance to put our final offer in. We upped our offer by quite a bit, and faxed it over. They said they would let us know when they accepted an offer.
So it's been 1 month since then. Our realtor has called and emailed with no response. Yesterday they email our realtor and tell him that the offer that they accepted had fallen out of escrow! They didn't even call us to tell us that they had accepted an offer. So we were super annoyed. Then they tell us that they are starting the process all over again, and if we want to make a *new* offer we can!
Then this afternoon, our realtor finally gets a live person over at the bank's realtors office. He wants to know why the bank isn't just going to accept our offer if it was the next one in line. Apparently the realtor DIDN'T SUBMIT OUR OFFER TO THE BANK! They said we were missing a document (that we weren't missing!) so they didn't submit the offer. But they told us that they had everything we needed and they'd submit the offer to the bank! They completely lied to us. I'm so angry. We've waited 6 weeks for nothing.
On the other hand, yesterday in our quest to see if they were relisting the house, I found another house that is perfect. It's not as big as the previous house, but it has a bigger yard, and it's on a cul-de-sac. So we submitted an offer on that one. We heard today that it has 2 other offers on it, so we will see. I'm just so stressed out and frustrated. We've been looking for 9 months. We've probably looked at 50 houses and submitted offers on 8. This is supposed to be the worst housing market ever and we are fighting for houses, it's crazy.
Here's the new one, the one we put the offer in on yesterday
