Discussion about
They let anyone show up at open houses with no ID needed and let them wander around unescorted, and rarely even bother to show much interest in potential buyers. I've never had one ask me for any evidence of anything before showing me an apartment. For much less $100,000 you can hire someone part-time to run credit checks etc on prospective buyers (do brokers even do that?). I am very qualified and the broker on this thread has ruled me out as a 20 something nobody, shows you how poor they are at judging potential buyers.
This person, Modern clearly hates brokers. Who knows why? Maybe she herself was one and knows what can go on.
Modern, you say you "qualify"...I'm new, tell me exactly what that means?
Oh, and Modern...could you explain to me exactly how I put a board package together for a 50% down coop?
I've heard it takes a good broker with experience, to help you present yourself at your best, both financially and personally.Could you help me with that also.
Oh, I forgot to tell you, I'm dyslexic and get numbers confused, so could you do my financial statement for me. I also have a touch of ADD and find it difficult to concentrate. Do you think you could compile all the papers and put them in order...it may take 20 trips to you before I get you everything you say you need. But then again, why do I need all this? I'm me, I'm special. You know, the bank gave me the loan so the board has to approve me. Can't you just call them and tell them who I am?
Modern, if you really are (modern) could you talk me through the process of buying and hold my hand and teach me the market. Could you show me 100 apartments before I make a decision? Then change my mind and wait another year to have you show me another 100 apartments? But you know what Modern, I forgot to tell you two years ago, when all this started before you put 1000 hours of your time into it and 1000 dollars in cab fares, that I was also thinking about Westchester and looking there also...I finally made an offer, there. It's a great house, you'll have to come visit. Can you believe it...after all this time I am actually going to buy something.
Oh and by the way, my list for gifts is at Tiffanys...thank you so much for all your time.
This person said I was a broker...I hate brokers.
Modern, well, she is anything but...
no new words ???

Broker101, that was a classic. What scares me is, I think I know the Tiffany's one. Hope to God there wasn't more than one of those.
