Here's an idea. Lets have one month per year as an open hunting season whereby we get to shoot all the lawyers, Realtors, Investment Bankers, Car Salesmen, Mortgage Brokers, Political Appointed Bureaucrats, and Politicians.
No limits, bag as many as you can.

I have had nothing but bad luck with REALTORS. I am currently suing a national Real Estate Company, the Broker, the Agent, the Title Company, etc. They are all losers but I will be the winner in the end.
I hate REALTORS.
I will never use one again.
Sell it yourself, FSBOs are best.

Just came across this BLOG.
Wow I am also a former Real Estate agent.
You are right about it all. The National Association of REALTORS, the Scottsdale Branch I belonged was run by a group of useless assholes with their friggin hands out for money. Like everyone else in the business. Brokers are the worse. The consumer is being shafted and they are too damn dumb to realize it. I prey for the opportunity when I sell my house with my knowledge of Real Estate. They will pay then I tell you.
Elaine Richardson is a disgrace as the Arizona Real Estate Commissioner.
The new Arizona State Motto should be, "Sue Your REALTOR."

REALTORS (the whole industry, agents, Brokers, companies, MLS, Tempo, NAR, title companies, Mortgage Brokers, lenders, government agencies, politicians, advertisers, sign makers, RE web developers, virtual tours, RE software makers, etc,).
ALL scum, filthy low life useless over priced do nothing, no nothing, incompetent ass clowns.
Lowlife bottom feeders.
People in the Real Estate and related industries are assholes who can't get a real job. I like the idea every BUYER should sue their Real Estate Agent and Broker.
I certainly got screwed over by everyone mentioned above.

Had a bad experience with John Hall and Associates in Phoenix. Everything from the listing through the Title Company went bad. The Arizona Dept. of Real Estate was useless they did nothing. The agent is still there, the Broker is still there, and the bullshit they tell their clients is still there. I am thinking of suing their butts.

Real Estate Agents and Brokers are as useful as a wart on your butt. Sell it yourself. I did. I never used any stinking Realtors. I hate Realtors. You too don't need any stinking Realtor. Stop paying those high commission fees. Tell all Realtors to eat crap and die.

Just saw you posting on craigslist for Sunday in Phoenix. I noticed one of the subjects was:
** Who's Needs a REALTOR anyway?
Is this under one of your existing web link pages or is it a new web page coming soon?
I would love to see something specific just on that subject.
Also my wife loves your Gardening Tips. She is hoping you expand that page soon.
YES ... and, I agree ALL Realtors Suck.
When I bought my house through RE/MAX the agent was a complete idiot.
Great site ... Thanks for the FREE advice.

Reading some of these BLOGS, my nightmare was with Century 21. I bought my first house 3 years ago in San Diego, new nothing, trusted a Realtor, never again. Now I am selling it myself (they call them FSBOs). Spent time researching and learning to do things myself. Sell and buy your own I say, Realtors are low lifes who have a license to steal and con their way through life.
Never burn me again.

My bad experience, well actually my worst costly nightmare was with REMAX Realty in Seattle. This happened about a year ago when I retired from Microsoft and sold my home. What a bunch of Jackasses these REALTORS really are. Giving an idiot a license is like giving a criminal a gun.

Read the John Hall & Associates of Phoenix AZ bad ones, my wife and I both bought a new home from a builder using a John Hall agent, what a friggin joke. He got a good commission and did nothing for us. Every time we asked him to do something with the builder he was too busy or just said, "That's the way it is, builders do what they want to.” What a loser this putz was. Unfortunately we ended up being the loser. Well here's a message for everyone thinking of buying a NEW Home from a builder, call first, ask if they give Realtors a commission, buy it yourself without the agent, tell the builder to give you the commission in a form of a discount.

I agree Elaine Richardson is useless. There has been no changes for the consumer in Arizona since she was replaced. The idea of even having a Real Estate Department is a total waste of taxpayer money. All they do is endorse the National Association of REALTORS at a local level, which has one purpose, screwing consumers.

My story, it's one of millions.
Had my home listed with Realty Execs for 3-months.
The agent did little or nothing.
I had about five people go through the home.
The Realty Execs agent was useless they did nothing for me.
After that 3-month downtime caused by the Real Estate listing agreement,
I did it myself; it's called a FSBO (for sale by owner).
The home SOLD in 5-weeks without the help of any damn Realtor.
FSBOs rule.
Realtors Suck.
That’s my story.
And, that is All Folks.

Greetings,
Surfing Google under ‘Realtors Suck’ saw your BLOG and decided to contribute.
First of all I like this BLOG site.
Can't say anything about Arizona but I can tell you Real Estate Agents / Brokers, and the California Association of REALTORS all suck big time.
They are useless as a boob job on a 90-year-old grandmother.
Doing a Real Estate transaction with a California Realtor is like jumping into a pit of venomous snakes. You know you’re going to get bit but you don’t know if you are going to survive.
Realtors are lower than sperm whale shit and that is as low as you can go on this planet called Earth!

I don't know what all the fuss is about. I have had many great experiences with Realtors. They have helped me to buy and sell many homes with great success. I always walked away very happy. Their commission was always reasonable (they are willing to negotiate, just ask). They need to get something. They are doing all the marketing and legwork. Sold all my homes in record time and bought new ones for a great price...all with Realtors.
Maybe others have had a bad experience because there home was over priced and didn't show well.
That has nothing to do with the Realtor.

I used a Realtor when I bought my new home in Orlando Florida. I thought I had jumped into a pool full of alligators. Never have I seen so many stupid people as there were in this transaction. My Real Estate Agent (a woman) and the builder’s agent (another woman) didn’t know crapola about construction, home layout, options, contract addendums, etc. etc. My wife, generally a mild easy going sensible person even said they acted like two dumb ass hillbillies. Lesson learned never have a Realtor involved when buying a new home!

Disappointed said...
Hey Mr. Real Estate Consumer Advocate:
Just found your BLOG Site on Google.
I did the Arizona School of Real Estate in Scottsdale about a year ago, and got my Real Estate license. Anyone who has had a license longer than 30 days knows the following:
1) The industry is full of Jackasses. I have never met so many incompetent people anywhere in my life as REALTORS.
2) The National Association of REALTORS (NAR) and all its useless affiliates like the Scottsdale Association of Realtors is a perpetuating con game to bilk money out of Real Estate Agents for no purpose. Unfortunately without joining some local organization you cannot get access to the MLS, a necessity for all REALTORS.
3) I too agree that Brokers and Brokerage agencies are useless. The 100 percent companies are no better.
4) As for Elaine Richardson, she spoke before a group of REALTORS. I was there. She is the queen of the Jackasses. That is the most narrow minded arrogant woman I have ever had the displeasure to encounter. She thinks ever Real Estate Agent works for her and should bow to ridiculous stupid rules that benefit only Brokers and hurt the buyer and seller.
I am glad you have spoken up. It is a shame more REALTORS don’t insist on getting rid of Elaine Richardson and doing away with Brokers altogether.

Hi Jack,
I have two comments:
First of all it appears to me you have some grudge against the Dept. of Real Estate, whether justified or not is no reason to take it out on every REALTOR is America.
Second, concerning the comment about Arizona Paradise Realty. I am a REALTOR myself. Arizona Paradise Realty is the reason people like you create Blogs this.
He abuses craigslist with multiple postings, he is arrogant, he sends out nasty emails or post-unwarranted comments to craigslist about other REALTORS.
This broker should have his license suspended.

Jack,
Here is my story for what it’s worth.
I live in northeast Scottsdale.
In trying to sell my home, I first listed it with RE/MAX for 3-months. Had one potential buyer. Never saw my agent after the listing.
Next I tried Realty Execs. Same, 3-month listing agreement, this time two potential buyers. Saw the Real Estate agent 3 times, lots of excuses, but no performance.
Finally after wasting 6 months with Realtors, I reluctantly did a FSBO (4 sale by owner). It took me another 4 months but I finally sold it myself. Paid no commissions, had no excuses, all went fairly well, no B….; well you get the idea.

Just a few comments for this forum if you don’t mind.
Just been perusing craigslist for phoenix Real Estate.
People inundate you with so much useless nonsense and sales pitches.
First there is all those stupid mortgage offers, they don’t even belong on this page. Please get a reality check they have a category for your kind. Plus many of these mortgage types repeat themselves over and over.
Next, there is that idiot broker (guy) of Arizona Paradise Realty and the many listings he posts every damn day. Look you turkey, you are hurting yourself. We get it, you’re a Realtor, and a bad one at that. How many times do you think the consumer needs to be reminded about you? Go take some serious courses one on ‘How to Market’ and another one on how to ‘Deal with People.’
Finally, I find the worst offender and most offensive is those false ads that lead to a website page for the ‘Holmes Team’ a.k.a. Arizona Home Shop to get that info. I went there, forget about it. It’s a personified con game! Nothing. NO info, just one of those stupid forms to fill out with all your personal details.
Mr. Jack at least you are honest, you are not trying to sell us anything under false pretense. I for one appreciate it.
I like your website at: www.arizonalistedhomes.com

Mr. Blog Creator,
Just went to craigslist in Phoenix for the first time to see what all the hub bub was about on this here Blog.
Damn I see why people are bitching. that wannabee Realtor at Paradise Valley Realty has 3 listings advertising himself on Sunday and its only 10:30am.
Lesson here is:
Anyone who monopolizes things like he does and is that stuck on himself is not for me.
Also, my first trip to craigslist is now my last.
They are worst than eBay.
And, as they say, ‘That’s All Sunny Jim.’

To All Readers:
Is this BLOG about Real Estate, Realtors, or CraigsList in Phoenix?
Went to see what the Blogging was about on craigslist, those filthy useless Mortgage Brokers are always posting where they don’t belong.
Craigs List should remove their sorry asses forever!
As for the other guy talked about, I agree he is awfully stuck on himself.
Frankly, sell it yourself, I have done several FSBOs no problems.
I can see how CraigsList would be of value to consumers for ‘REAL Services’ sought but its hard to wade through the knee deep shit with all the Realtors and Mortgage bozos eating up space and reading time.

Blogs are important to consumers ...
In case anyone missed this, it was on CNN.
Realtors going after house-selling organization August 31, 2004
The Real Estate industry is going through some massive changes lately. Information is becoming more available to the public and consumers are able to look at listings with or without the help of an agent. It's leading to more blended sales, where FSBOs and a la carte pricing are involved.
Traditional Real Estate Agents are very unhappy with this new pricing model, and some are striking back. The New Hampshire Association of Realtors is going after an organization that helps people get discounts called "I Sold My House.” Realtors are claiming that the group is acting as an unlicensed Realtor. But in doing so, the Realtors are helping spread publicity about this organization. Real Estate Agents are simply scared of new technologies and changes. In a free market, you should have the choice of doing business with who you want the way you want.

Sell it yourself.
They are called FSBOs.
After getting screwed by Century 21 when I bought my home, I wised up, this old owl sold it himself this time, without any problems or headaches.
The Con Game is simple - Real Estate Companies want you to think you need them. the fact is they need you!
Long Live FSBOs and Death to the so-called Real Estate established industry.

It is obvious they were written by the same person. At least have the guts to post here and tell this guy what you think. Otherwise it confirms you are just back stabbing lying mommy boys.

A student of human behavior said...
I am a forensic psychology student. I also have a Real Estate License. My independent observation and input is as follows:
// People who create BLOGS are generally frustrated with life or bored or both.
// Use BLOGS for their intended purpose to rant and rave. If they offend you don’t read them! Just thank your lucky stars we live in America where Free Speech reins.
// People who post numerous times to anything are potential society problems. They generally have sexual inadequacies. This over a period of time develops into something more serious. I suggest those who do post frequently to anything either grow up, or seek counseling.
// Society has become more intolerant and in lament terms it is not a good idea to piss people off. So in my humble opinion you shouldn’t poke the bear it may eat you.

A proud dad said...
My Real Estate transaction had a lot more downs than ups. In fact my agent was a total Jackass. We had several heated discussions, but they were all after we signed the purchase contract and gave the seller a deposit. My son was still eating baby food and my wife had just fed him before we walked into the Title Company. I new my Realtor would be there, so I was roughhousing with the baby. When the Real Estate agent walked in I shook the agents hand and said, “Well despite our differences it appears we will get out dream home after all.” I asked the agent to hold the baby while we signed the documents …. Yes, you guessed it, that son of mine puke all over that agent.
Damn revenge is so sweet.

For all who had, or may have a bad experience with a Real Estate agent, here is some get even tricks ...
Mail any one of the following to the agent after closing:
* Dead fish, leave in sun for a few days, wrap in alum foil before mailing.
* Pet poop, wrap first.
* Dead snake, leave lose in box or padded envelope for best effect.
* On the lighter side, a box of giant tampons with a note that says 'BITCH.'
* The surprise approach - chocolate brownies, add a box of laxatives and a thank you note.

Son you must love to shit stir.
You’ve got some people very upset.
As a Real Estate salesperson myself and retiring the end of this year, frankly ‘I don’t give a damn.’
I agree with you the industry is broken.
This situation is primarily caused by to damn many greedy people.
Continuously pumping out (licensing REALTORS) under the current situation in the Phoenix Valley, and many parts of the country when the markets were heated was like trying to over stock a pond with fish.

I am at craigslist/Phoenix/politics - Saw your Blog, saw your recall petition of Elaine Richardson (Arizona Real Estate Commissioner). She is an arrogant ass I can tell you. This Blog and many like it confirms one thing just how unhappy people are over the Real Estate industry in general.
It also confirms how our politicians don’t listen to the needs and wants of the people who elected them.
Elaine Richardson is definitely part of the problem.
She needs to go – NOW !!

A Realtor said...
Been reading lots of Blogs about Real Estate over the last few weeks. Have commented on a few. I’ve been a REALTOR in Massachusetts for nearly 15 years. It appears your problems lie in a bad Real Estate Commissioner. We don’t tolerate that nonsense here. You mess up, violate the rules, or law you lose your license. I am sorry that many feel ill will towards REALTORS. This business is not for everyone. Many get in thinking they will get rich fast. Unfortunately they give us all a bad name.
Oh well its time to go to my in-laws for Turkey Day, they’re cooking this year.
Happy Thanksgiving to All ..

I see lots of people are talking about their Real Estate experiences. Let me just say that this is probably the biggest investment most of us will every make.
I, like so many others, trusted my Realtor, that useless shit led me down that preverbal primrose path by suggesting I use a Mortgage Broker. Mortgage Brokers are true scam artist.
This un-flushed poop turd charged me 1% of my mortgage loan amount. I found out later I could have not only saved the 1% but have saved substantially on the loan interest rate as well. I had 20 percent down. So remember Trust No One, especially anyone with your money.

After completing my latest Real Estate transaction with some of the biggest idiots on this planet, I'd rather have a 3-day hang over with the dry heaves than deal with these losers again. The two Real Estate Agents were without any doubt the worse, but the Title Company, and home inspector were almost as bad. They all left me wanting to spend the night getting drunk at a bar. I didn’t even want to look at my new house, they wore me out.

The Texas Dept. of Wildlife (fish and game) issued a public notice today saying that Realtors and Lawyers were not game and contrary to erroneous news reports there were no limits on the number that could be shot.
In fact the TDW further stated, they encouraged the hunting of the pesky critters because the state was currently overrun with them.
In a related story a prominent restaurant owner when interviewed said, “Neither Realtors or Lawyers taste like chicken but more like dung since that was their primary make up and composition.”

API Reporting for LA Times said...
The Los Angeles County Coroner’s office officially declared 9 Realtors died in the recent wild fires, now believed to be arson.
On two follow up stories:
The LA County District Attorney’s Office decided not to press charges saying the public was outraged over the arrest because California was infested with the low life useless con artist vermin scum suckers, and the arsonist did the public a favor.
As a result of the public outcry and support of the famed arsonist, the Mayor of Los Angeles has decided to award the arsonist with a heroic citizen accommodation award.

Hey Hey Oh Jack The Bad 1,
Loving it yes loving it all so much this Blog -
⇒ Selecting a Realtor for normal home sales or purchases is a mistake.
Saying that for the fools, which in the past I have been one myself, but never again, who may contemplate interviewing a so-called Realtor will soon come to realize speaking to a Real Estate Agent is in fact engaging in endless ramblings of a confused and warp mind.

Not Rocket Science said...
Look the reason that both Lawyers and Realtors get away with the shit they do, are able to cheat the public, and not be held accountable is because they police themselves.
An independent arbitration board by registered U.S. Voters (citizens) with no criminal record should be selected at random (say a 3-member panel) the same way you select a jury but only those 3 show up, not 200 to pick from.
They hear both sides of the story (argument), and if the Realtor (plus their Broker), or the Lawyer is found at fault they lose their license for one year.

Licensed Realtor said...
Jack,
Sorry I am not a funny guy although many of the entries on this Blog even defamatory to my profession, are in fact humorous. But I have been a REALTOR in California and Arizona for many years.
It appears to me you have issues with at least two Brokerage Firms, plus The National Association of REALTORS, and the Arizona Real Estate Commissioner.
These issues however, if you think it through, then should not cast aspirations upon the whole Real Estate industry.
As for Elaine Richardson, you have all ready said it yourself, she is a bureaucrat, useless as she may be, and I agree is she one of the worse I have seen as a Real Estate Commissioner, you have too deal with it, as in learn to live with it or get out of the business.
Unfortunately the recent nationwide Real Estate boom, now in a serious decline for the housing market will thin out the people who jumped in to make a fast buck, this will include Brokers because many are having problems staying afloat. As for your consumer suggestions, many are valid, and I do believe that if someone truly believes they have been swindled or cheated they should pursue it through legal action.
Real Estate like all businesses and professions have good and bad. I don’t want the bad ones anymore than you or your Blog posters do.

My wife is a Realtor, and neither of us appreciate or approve of your Blog.
in saying that I fought in Vietnam so people in America can speak out.
As for this Ed Harley and the recent posting on craigslist.org about your Blog, these are both done by a real idiot DBA for a Real Estate Company called - Arizona Paradise Realty.
No one can stand this guy and why he gets any clients boggles the mind.
He is why people like you hate Realtors, and with good reason.
On behalf of the Real Estate community world wide we apologize for brokers and companies like Arizona PV Realty.
Just ignore the idiot like we all do.

Finished that stupid boring useless Real Estate course at the Arizona School of Real Estate. All the instructors talk like they have a mouth full of cotton, and make about as much sense as a drunk calling out train arrivals and departures at New York’s Grand Central Station. They take your money and later you find out they’re rubberstamping these people through like a dripping faucet. There are over 72,000 REALTORS in Arizona, most of who are in the Phoenix Valley, so don’t waste your money. Unfortunately, I didn’t see this BLOG until after I competed the course and spent my money. Then of course the Idiots that have so well been pointed out at the Arizona Dept. of Real Estate, headed by a total moron and useless bureaucrat named Elaine Richardson, takes more of my money … then it’s the NAR, MLS, TEMPO, and lets not forget the lowest of life, the Real Estate Broker (company I/You go to work for as a Real Estate Agent). This has been one hell of an experience. What I have learned is enough to be able to sue the crap out of every Real Estate Agent, Broker, Builder, and Title Company that farts the wrong way in any transaction I am ever involved in!
Sorry Name Withheld (so I can get even).

I never met any REALTOR worth their salt. Back home we’d tie them to a tree and let critters feed on them.

Heartbreaking, but typical story of a Realtor:

Now your father is so ashamed he drowns his sorrows in a bottle. Your parents are divorced, and your mother has moved away and she has not told you where she has gone.
Oh the shame of it all!

No offense to anyone who is a Realtor, friend of a Realtor, works for Realtors, is dating a Realtor, or anything of the sort ......
but why are they so damn stupid and void of a conscience!?
They keep stealing my damn for sale by owner signs!!
I'm sorry if my home for sale is competing with your 3% commission but earn it the fair way! Don't steal my friggin 4-sale signs! I've bought at least 12 by now and its getting a little ridiculous. There are 3 open houses in my neighborhood today and wouldn't you know that my signs that were there yesterday, suddenly disappeared this morning. Coincidence? I think not. And a couple weeks ago, I had a sign that I duct taped to a huge rock (white trash, I know, I admit it, but the ground was like cement :)
I drove by one morning and it was gone. The sign AND THE ROCK!!! They had to steal the entire rock to get the sign!!
Pathetic!!!
If Realtors were smart, they would realize that I am willing to pay a 3% commission to a Realtor if they have a buyer that buys my house. Therefore, they have more options for their clients if they want to buy in this neighborhood, and they will get paid!
No wonder why the statistics show that only 2% of homes are sold FSBO.
Because friggin Realtors won't allow people to market their own homes! They want them to think they can't do it on their own!
I apologize for my hatred (at the moment) for Realtors but honestly, come on.

You Desperate Realtors:
I love looking through the Real Estate section and listening to all the desperate Realtor sales pitches. I also think it is funny how most of them think that the layman don't know shit about the Real Estate process and they need the help of the self proclaimed "expert"
C’mon now! This is the 21st century (not to be confused by you moron Real Estate agents with Century 21), all the info you need is online and it's free. They count on your ignorance so they can kill you with useless fees, just like their buddies the Mortgage Brokers, another loser job.

Selling by Owner said...
How much does listing on the MLS cost a Realtor? Do they really deserve 3% of your home sale because they typed up an MLS listing in less than 1hr?
I'm sorry, but I would rather keep 7 grand than throw it way.
Purchase a flat fee MLS listing.
Add a $7-8 domain name like I did
HouseOnLibby.com
Like another poster said. This is the 21st century. Why should an MLS listing be limited to a few paragraphs. Who knows more about a house? A Realtor reading from an MLS print out, or the Owner?

Just reading this BLOG, many funny entries, and some sad stories, but angry people none the less.
It proves two things:
1)Realtors are arrogant and the day of the high commissions are over, thanks to the Internet.
2) They really really really do SUCK.

The Old Lady who lived in a Shoe,
Ask a Realtor what to do?
The Realtor told her the place was a disgrace,
But the Old Lady said FSBO must be the way,
And she sold her property the very next day.

After dealing with several Realtors, I believe there are grounds for the argument why the government should issue Free Valium and Free Condoms to the public.
In fact CONDOMS should be mandatory for anyone who has a Real Estate license, those frig-wads should NOT be allowed to breed.

Mortgage Brokers -
Do the words con artist, scum, asshole. loser, liar, dweeb, putz, conman, low life, thief, piss pot ... have any meaning to you?.
Bashing Realtors is fun, they deserve every bit of it.
It's now time to BASH Mortgage Brokers, they also work on a commission, promise the world, and rarely deliver to those that need it!

JACK (Mr. Encantoman),
I agree with one thing, Elaine Richardson, The Arizona Real Estate Commissioner, is as worthless as a truck load of dead coyotes and just about as effective.
I like your recall website, she is an Arizona style fem-dom bitch.
As for everything else, nothing is all bad, even with REALTORS and Mortgage Brokers. There are a few good ones out there. I use to be one, now retired and not caring.
The Real Estate industry needs a good thorough house cleaning. Sort of like trimming an old tree to get rid of all the dead branches and allow for new vibrant growth.

Personally, I think there ought to be a set fee for all Real Estate transactions regardless of the property transaction sales price.
This should be uniform nation wide.
It does not take any more effort to sell a $250,000 home than a $750,000 one, etc.
A fair price would be $3,000 paid equally by the seller and buyer.
I do agree that we need to get rid of Real Estate Brokers, and allow the agents to act totally independently of one another and any entity or outside influence.

You are wrong about REALTORS.
You are right about Elaine Richardson, she needs to go and now.
For the exception of a few, almost the entire Arizona Department of Real Estate should be fired and replaced.
Blog Administrator’s Comment: This idiot was replaced with another idiot named Sam Wercinski on January 11, 2007. Sorry my ‘Recall Petition’ webpage (www.azflatfeefsbo.com) has not been updated. In fact Elaine Richardson is now an Arizona State Senator, for the 11th District, yep a democrat but then so is the moron Governor of Arizona Janet Napolitano.

A Test 4 Realtors:
Mr and Mrs Seller the next time you interview some smart ass Realtor who thinks he can sell your house, ask them for $500.00 cash. Tell them they’ll get it back at closing.

The Truth Hurts said...
Realtors Are Offensive 2 Me,
Realtors are defensive of themselves, and they like to attack others, even their own kind.
Now I know why Tigers eat their young.
Once a Realtor has contacted an owner or owners (sellers), as the BUYER just go around them. Go directly to the seller and make an offer yourself. I have done it. There isn't one damn thing they can do about it.
Whatever you do, NEVER sign a buyers agreement. It's called a Buyer / Broker Agreement.
Remember, after all, Realtors just want to help you, at least that's what they claim.
Real Estate Contracts are so easy, a caveman could do them.
And, yeah I expect some dumb ass Realtor will respond with typical blah blah blah bulsshit, just ignore them I do, they will eventually go away and pester someone else.

WASHINGTON DC (Reposted, 2007) –
While the housing downturn has depressed once-thriving Real Estate markets around the nation, far-flung suburbs of major cities have suffered the most abrupt market correction.
Home construction in these distant exurbs has slowed and prices and sales have fallen more than those of close-in suburban neighbors since a five-year housing boom ended in the summer of 2005. Average home prices in Loudon County, Virginia, 35 miles outside of the nations capitol, fell roughly 11 percent in 2006, according to the Northern Virginia Association of Realtors. By contrast, Virginia's Arlington County, which hugs DC, saw a price decline of only about 2 percent.
It's been hard for sellers to comprehend, the news that your home is worth $100,000 less than it was a year and a half ago.

Let me tell you about my Realtor experience:
I was looking for a home so I called several Real Estate Companies. After thoroughly explaining what I was looking for and my price range, here is what I personally encountered (yes, I used several companies):
> 1 idiot-savant
> 2 complete morons
> 1 bitch with a cell phone addiction
> 1 blabbering nitwit
> 1 maniac driver
> 1 troll with a swimming pool fetish
The results were as follows:
>> 3-houses that weren’t even close to what I described or wanted.
>> 1-house way over priced, even according to comps of other homes that sold in the same neighborhood.
>> 1-Real Estate agent that was so persistent about one particular home they gave me a headache.
>> 2-houses in neighborhoods I wouldn’t let my worse enemy live in. Just driving through them made me have a desire to run out and buy a firearm.
>> I was showed 2 condos. Look you idiots condos are not homes.
>> A fixer upper, so she told me after we got there. It was more like a structure that was condemned.
>> A house on all electric heat. Right this Realtor shit is in fantasyland.
>> 2-homes on septic systems. These agents need to get a real job.
>> 1 home with no cable utility service. I specifically said I needed high speed Internet access, like these bozos listen.
>> 1 property that was a build-to-suit. I am wondering what part of I need to purchase a home and close in the next 45-days this mentally deficient putz didn’t understand.
>> 2 homes that had pets and smokers, when I specifically said my child is allergic to smoke and pet hair. The Realtor’s answer, you can get this cleaned top to bottom for under $300.
>> I saved this one for last – a house with mirrors on the ceiling in the master bedroom owned by 2 gay men.
Conclusion – I found a home by myself going to open houses in the area I wanted to live. Yes they all had Realtors representing the seller. I hired an attorney, my own inspection people, etc. I ended up with what I wanted and with a lot less hassle. The seller’s agent turned the transaction over to their Broker because my attorney was a bear. The transaction went smoothly, at least from my end.
Lesson Learned – As the old adage goes, ‘Want something done right, do it yourself.” I suppose Realtors have their places but for the common working mother (or couple) with limited time and means, it didn’t work out for me. Also you can bet when I sell this home it will be by a FSBO.

Reposted from a New York Times News Service Article:
A 6% Solution that Realtors Love to Hate
MADISON, Wisconsin
Across the country, the National Association of Realtors and the 6 percent commission that most of its members charge to sell a house are under assault by government officials, consumer advocates, lawyers and ambitious entrepreneurs. But the most effective challenge so far emanates from a spare bedroom in the modest home here of Christie Miller.
Miller, 38, a former social worker who favors fuzzy slippers, and her cousin, Mary Clare Murphy, 51, operate what appears to be the largest for-sale-by-owner Web site in the country. They have turned Madison, a city of 208,000 known for its liberal politics, into the most competitive place in the country for residential Real Estate listings. And their success suggests that, in challenging the Realtors association's dominance of home sales, they may have hit on a winning formula that has eluded many other upstarts. Their site, FsboMadison.com (pronounced FIZZ-BO) holds a nearly 20 percent share of the Dane County market for residential Real Estate listings.
Charging just $150 to list a home, and throwing in a teal blue yard sign, it draws more Internet traffic than the traditional multiple listing service controlled by Real Estate agents.

Arizona State Targets Mortgage Fraud Schemes:
A wave of mortgage fraud in the Valley has prompted state legislation that would define it as a crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison. A day after The Arizona Republic's special investigation into cash-back mortgage deals, Sen. Jay Tibshraeny of Chandler introduced a bill that would make mortgage fraud a felony. That’s right boys and girls Arizona again is behind that’s why all the so-called white collar criminals come here. Cash-back deals are a newer form of mortgage fraud whose rapid spread in Arizona has alarmed regulators and Real Estate industry leaders. The fraud involves obtaining a mortgage for more than a home is worth and pocketing the extra money in cash. The deals inflate home values and can affect values across whole neighborhoods. Homeowners stuck with overpriced mortgages may never recover the difference. Ultimately, lenders end up with bad loans. All this can hurt the Arizona Real Estate market, the largest segment of the state economy. Several readers were alerted to the schemes when they saw homes sit unsold for months and their prices reduced. Then, as the housing market was slowing even more, those homes sold for tens of thousands of dollars more than the previous listed price. That is the No. 1 warning sign for cash-back deals, regulators say.

Realtors - when you cannot do anything else:
Point - Become a Realtor. It takes no skill and no brains.
Counter Point - Not true. It takes great skill to provide a consistent level of dishonesty and deception.
It takes great skill to avoid returning phone calls.
It takes great skill to place the "For Sale" sign in front of a house and wait for another Realtor to sell it.
In Arizona Female Real Estate Agents that have great boobs often fare well. That's what it takes, baby. So do you have it?
If not, you can still be a Mortgage Broker. They seem to rarely show up for work anyway and a good body isn’t that important.

Original Realtor Hater said...
The Middleman Is Now Obsolete:
I have had many Realtors who worked for me. Although they were nice people, the fact of the matter is they simply add 5% additional cost to the buyer or the seller. It’s a redundant cost that hurts everybody. With the days of Internet upon us, the days of Realtors are limited. Sooner or later, they will be extinct. Anytime you see a "middleman" in any business transaction think of him as a bloodsucker. They add NO VALUE to the real underlying transaction!

I live and work in Arizona.
I am a Real-A-Tit (female Real-A-Turd).
I gave up being in Real Estate at the end of 2006 once I learned Elaine Richardson was a bigger ‘Bitch’ than I was.
Now I am a ‘Mortgage Broker.’
You see I am not regulated. I can rip off and cheat customers. That’s you idiot consumers at will.
Please use me.
I can get you a loan, bad credit, no credit, good credit, refinance, new mortgage, commercial, pre-construction …
I don’t do it right, but I do it all.
The news media has warned consumers to be on the look out for fraudulent and bad Mortgage Brokers, but don’t worry that’s not me. Arizona is a great place, let me take your money or steal your identity – I mean help you get that loan.

Un-trustworthy

Un-ruly

Un-wound
Un-educated
Un-American
Un-caring
And, a whole bunch of other ‘Un’ things …

Hey all these postings are quite entertaining and amusing but I'd like to tell you about CENTURY 21 Real Estate:
My first ever experience in buying a home was like trying to drive in a thick fog.
I finally realized it was all bull, took some charge myself, and hired a lawyer, which went with me at closing.
The seller, of course, got stuck for my Real Estate agent's fee and their listing agent.
I paid the lawyer directly from my pocket.
But once I had a Real Estate attorney involved everyone seemed to have a NEW kind of attitude, a good one, I might add.
Hire a Real Estate Attorney let them read everything before you sign it.
They are worth every damn penny I paid them.
On the other hand my Century 21 Real Estate Agent wasn't worth a sack of dead grass!

But I hate RE/MAX the most.
Never use RE/MAX - they suck, they screw their clients.

The Re-poster Guy said...
Buyer Beware - Lots of folks advertising cash back deals. Here is an excerpt from a recent article.
More examples of WHY REALTORS SUCK - they are born conmen!!!
Re-posted article ... Cash-back scam
The cash-back deal usually starts with buyers searching for a homeowner eager to sell.
An example of how it works:
A homeowner lists the house for $300,000, but there are no offers. One day a buyer or Real Estate agent appears and offers $350,000, $50,000 above the asking price. The seller may keep the $300,000 asking price but has to give back the extra $50,000. Sometimes the seller is told the money is for renovations. In other cases, the seller is offered a share of the extra cash. When everyone agrees on the deal, an appraiser delivers an inflated appraisal that is used to obtain the $350,000 mortgage. On through the sale process, the fraud also may involve an escrow agent or Mortgage Broker who provides information and documents knowing the home is not worth the amount of the loan. Many cash-back sales are hidden from lenders by an addendum filed later or even marked secret. After the papers are signed, the extra cash is divided as planned. The lender and everyone else who checks the comp on that sale believe the home has a market value of $350,000. Some buyers who use the cash-back scam then use short-term financing to keep their payments low and pull the scam again by selling to another accomplice. Others choose simply to walk away and deal with having a foreclosure in their credit history, a blemish that is relatively easy to erase later. Some hope to make a final sale to another buyer who is unaware of the scam, leaving that person stuck paying the mortgage on an overpriced house. Last November, a cash-back buyer approached Brett Barry of Realty Executives at an open house in north Phoenix. The home had been reduced to $500,000. The potential buyer said he would pay full price but wanted to raise the sales price $40,000 or $50,000 and have the seller write him a check for that extra amount. "He wanted the money under the table after the deal closed," Barry said. "He said he had a lender with an appraiser who could make the deal happen." Barry knew the deal was bad but was obligated to present it to his clients, who also thought it was too fishy and passed. There are other warning signs for sellers facing possible cash-back deals: Handwritten offers with details buyers don't want in the contract. A buyer's request that the home be removed from any listing service so a lender can't track the original price. The fraud is in misrepresenting the value of the home to the lender. Buyers sign a standard loan document, Form 1003, which states: "We/I fully understand that it is a Federal crime punishable by fine or imprisonment to knowingly make false statements." And everyone involved in the deal who knew the value of the home was less than the mortgage is subject to prosecution. For starters, Mortgage Brokers, Real Estate agents and appraisers can lose their licenses. But everyone involved in mortgage fraud, including buyers and the sellers, can be fined and even sent to prison. There are many other forms of mortgage fraud, such as misrepresenting a buyer's true income, using false identification to buy or sell property, or obtaining loans for properties that don't exist. In older cities such as Detroit and Chicago, one popular scam involves buying distressed properties for little money, obtaining an inflated appraisal and immediately reselling the home to an accomplice and making off with the mortgage money.
Cash-back deals sweeping across America and especially in Arizona are a newer form of fraud that flourishes in hot markets such as Phoenix with recent run-ups in home prices. Regulators are afraid cash-back mortgage fraud is becoming much more widespread around the country.
Proof that useless bitch, Elaine Richardson, (former) Arizona Real Estate Commissioner was part of the problem!
In Fact - call your governor, insist they replace all Real Estate Commissioners in every state with someone who does NOT have a Real Estate background and nothing to gain by supporting fraudulent Real Estate transactions.

And I am just having a riot with myself, sitting here in my Bugs Bunny PJ's with my rear-end flap door sipping a carrot-colada and trying to slip slide my wood from the bottle of a Peach Fresca that a mysterious stranger left on the hood of my SUV.
Sometimes I awaken and don't know (entirely) where I am, but I suppose that's normal for a REALTOR. You see most Real Estate agents have some type of multiple personality disorder, that’s why they can’t hold down a regular job.
I often have nightmares of changing personalities in the middle of writing a contract or doing a listing agreement.
The most perplexing problem I have is how to masturbate, drink my extra strong black coffee with 6 sugars, talk on my cellphone, and drive all at the same time.
But life is good I love being all my many selves.

Thinking of moving to Arizona …
WTF – is up with Phoenix?
Read this before moving:
Doing business with almost anyone in Phoenix involves wading through acres and acres of BS, outright lies (misinformation and withheld information), back-stabbing, lack of consideration, a dearth of non work ethics, no working concept of a clock or calendar for time, and tons of people who act as if there's something wrong with YOU if you call them on their non performance and useless ass crap they provide.
Here is an exact quote from a native Phoenician (person born in Phoenix Arizona) speaking to me said:
“You'd be a lot less complex to deal with if you'd stop wanting people to tell you the truth!”
Another born Arizona loser from Tucson said:
“Look we’re not use to hurrying here, we’ll get to it sooner or later. But if you wanted quality, especially in the housing industry you should have never left the East Coast.”

Century 21
RE/MAX
Keller-Williams
And the last one was Prudential.
If you want to blame someone for the poor housing market then Real Estate Companies and the morons they employ are totally to blame.
When you tact on a 6% commission you are inflating the actual housing (property) value. Thus when the bubble breaks which it has the last owner gets stuck with the inflated price.
2007 will be a very bad year for the housing industry.
Hell the CEO of DR Horton Homes said this year will ‘SUCK.’
That should tell everyone dig in and prepare for the worst. Don’t expect 2008 to be any better.
Wall Street’s projections are 100 Billion Dollars in bad loan debts caused by another group of idiots that severely affect the housing industry, they are called Mortgage Companies.
Because of all the creative financing on housing loans like interest only and ARMS plus the inflated values of financing over 100% of the home value has created a financial nightmare.
This will have a rippling effect and a major recession is projected in September or October o this year.
If you own a home keep it.
If you’re planning to buy a home it’s a BUYERS market.
If you are sub prime or have bad credit forget it you are dead in the water.
If you have a credit score of 740 or higher you can set your own deal. Get a 30-year fixed rate. You should be able to get a reasonable rate at about 6.14% on a 30-year fixed mortgage.
The so-called great low interest rates are gone, so if you are waiting for a come back you could wait 5 to 8 years if ever.

Hello Mr. Jack,
I also found you on Google Search.
Reference: The Re-Poster Guy’s post of March 8th 2007
Subject: Thinking of moving to Arizona
Every word posted there is so true.
I have had nothing but problems with contractors and subcontractors.
The new home builders here also suck.
Even national builders who are forced mostly by strict code enforcement on the east coast come here and get away wit shabby building techniques.
Go to any construction site all you find is a bunch of stupid illegal Mexicans who can’t speak English, and have no skills working (building) new homes.
It is the same with subcontractors.
These assholes here know that the state government is useless and don’t enforce regulations.
The reasons are obvious …
1) They don’t want to offend the Mexican community, even though most of them are illegals.
2) They don’t want anyone slowing down the economy here in Arizona especially in Phoenix / Maricopa County.
Stay where you are, don’t move here. This place sucks for getting anything done or purchasing anything.
The Real Estate Companies, Mortgage Brokers, Car Dealers, and Builders are the worse. They perpetuate the problem to an unbearable condition.
Move only if you have a law degree or lots of time and money to hire a good lawyer.
Expect nothing from your state, county or local government officials because you wont get anything!

The Re-poster Guy said...
As a widening crisis over nontraditional and subprime mortgages gone bad threatens to force millions of people out of their homes, worries continue that Mortgage Brokers are well on their way to overtaking used car salesmen on the list of professions least trusted by consumers next to Realtors.
We're in ethical chaos in mortgage lending, mortgage bankers and Brokers finding. Lenders versus consumers on ethical mortgage practices are climbing at an alarming as Congress drags its feet in what to do.
All you have to do is open up your spam (e-mail) bin and you see porn spam, Viagra spam, and mortgage spam," adding that the unethical behavior Brokers are tainting the entire industry. It's going to be a long road for the mortgage industry to climb out of that gutter. After the housing market slowed in 2006 and more people fell behind on mortgage payments, the foreclosure stories became front-page news across the United States. In the last three months of 2006, lenders began foreclosure proceedings on about one out of every 200 mortgages, the highest rate on records dating back 37 years, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. Some 1.5 million homeowners will face foreclosure this year. An American dream has become an American nightmare, according to commissioner at the Connecticut Department of Banking. Another example of a growing crisis in America of a stinking worthless bureaucrat not protecting the consumer. PAYING For The American Housing Dream:
Many people accepted complex mortgages to buy homes that were probably out of reach, but deals such as 100-percent financing and adjustable-rate mortgages that initially carried low monthly payments encouraged excess, critics contend. The quality of the loan has everything to do with this crisis, says Josh Nassar, vice president for federal affairs at the Center for Responsible Lending in Washington. Among the biggest culprits were the so-called "2-28" loans that offered low interest rates and payments for the first two years, but then spiked up. Many borrowers misunderstood the terms or thought they could refinance, and found themselves stuck with mortgages that they could no longer afford. The worry that the true cost of chasing the American dream is adding up quickly. They say soaring foreclosure rates will rip apart lower-income communities where a disproportionate number of those loans were written. Groups examined lending in six major cities including New York, Los Angeles and Chicago and found that black borrowers were 3.8 times more likely to receive higher-cost home loans than were white borrowers. Hispanic borrowers were 3.6 times more likely. "There's a lot of pain that's occurring and will occur because home ownership was sold at too great a price," said Kevin Stein, associate director of the California Reinvestment Coalition, one of the agencies that worked on the study. John Taylor, president and chief executive officer of the National Community Reinvestment Coalition, said foreclosure not only devastates the homeowner's credit rating, but also tends to lower the value of properties nearby.
"We're not anti-subprime. There's a role for them. They're important. But these exotic, nontraditional mortgages that are designed to strip wealth need to be eliminated," Taylor said. He wants lenders to restructure loans to help people stay in their homes, and has called on the Bush administration and Congress to amend rules governing the Federal Housing Administration so that the agency could refinance subprime borrowers' loans that are in default. For many, any changes would come too late. One economic policy analyst says borrowers going through foreclosure had little chance of regaining the financial footing they would need to qualify for another loan. This promise of home ownership starts to elude families that tried to buy a home, bought into a loan that they really couldn't afford, and once they foreclosed, the possibility of owning a home again is really, really limited.

Dear Jack:
I am glad to see someone has finally addressed this serious issue of Realtors causing the housing market to be over inflated with their bullshit 6% unwarranted commissions.
I applaud you, this BLOG is great.
I also like the posters here who have added and contributed Mortgage Brokers, which are the cause of the housing market crash and so many property repro's.
The two other key factors are:
1) Useless HOAs (Home Owner Associations) add unnecessary cost to monthly home owner expenses. These are caused by a combination of Idiot Builders; Stupid Politicians; Lazy City Workers; and Dumb Ass useless politically appointed Real Estate Commissioners like Elaine Richardson in Arizona, but every state has one!
2) Unnecessary High Property Taxes. Under NO circumstance should property tax ever exceed 1% of the appraised building value (no land included).
Thanks for caring about the little guy.

Real Homeowner in Mesa Arizona said...
To the previous poster about why the HOUSING Market is so screwed up ...
You forgot one big factor
>>> Flippers
Here is an example of a useless FLIPPER --
There is a house down the street from mine that has been on the market for at least 6 months. Almost every Sunday, they have an open house that no one attends. I live in an affluent part of East Mesa, and purchased my house in this area before the bubble. I didn’t pay a ridiculous price like so many did.
I was curious about the sales history of this house, so I did a zillow.com on it.
Yep! Purchased in 2005, at the height of the bubble.
Flippers!
I experience massive amounts of schadenfreude whenever I see this house. I hope the owners are starving in the streets, struggling to eat top ramen noodles.
Die flippers die
Flippers are mostly Realtors who buy and sell properties in an over inflated housing market and then get stuck with them at the higher value and can't sell the homes with the bubble breaks.
For these assholes I hope you are go bankrupt, catch on fire, and die a horrible death !!

Yes I am a Realtor said...
To all the Realtor haters:
It makes me laugh reading the hater posts about Realtors. If only I could expose you for the losers that you are, working minimum wage jobs, driving your piece of shit cars and the only property you could ever even hope to purchase would be a piece of shit condo conversion.
Me well I live in a 900k+ house in McDowell Mountain Ranch (Phoenix Arizona). My backyard has views of the city. When I fire up my hot tub and I'm cranking music and looking at those twinkling lights all I can do is think about some loser sitting in his shity one room apartment bitching about them damn Realtors. Perhaps if you had ever bothered to get motivated and do something positive you would be my neighbor and I would still hate you but at least you wouldn't be some broke ass bitch complaining here on this stupid consumer Blog forum.
WHAT A BUNCH OF LOSERS!!!!!!

From CNN News - March 23, 2007 Maricopa County, Arizona is the fastest growing 'County' in the United States:
Population: 3,768,123 Increase (July 2005 - July 2006): 129,642
Maricopa added more residents to its population in the 12 months ended July 1, 2006, than live in the city of Savannah, Georgia.
Its main city, Phoenix, has grown from a modest desert town into the sixth-largest city in the nation.
Growth for the county as a whole has been explosive, from less than a million in 1970 to 3.8 million today. The population has increased by about 700,000 since 2000. Helping to drive growth is a diversified economy; many high-tech and telecoms companies have relocated to the area in the past few decades. And the climate attracts many seasonal visitors, adding to a strong tourism industry.
Unfortunately - this has led to high crime rates, serious pollution problems, high energy bills, congested freeways, a strain on public services and utilities, the largest undocumented illegal alien problem in the country, high taxes, poor government services, largest drug smuggling operation in the country, unwanted pests and rodents being inadvertently transported here, a strain on health care services and providers, short tempered police, and a HOST of other problems to long to mention !!!
Arizona is also the Mortgage Scam Capitol of the world. Mortgage and Real Estate con artist along with fraudulent contractors operate freely throughout Arizona especially in Maricopa County. This can be blamed mostly on The Governor and her idiot political appointees one of the worst being Elaine Richardson, the former Arizona Real Estate Commissioner.

DR Horton Homes Suck
I bought a DR Horton home early in 2004 shortly before the run up in prices. This has to be the most poorly constructed house ever. It's a no wonder they are so cheap comparatively speaking. The warranty department won't take care of crap.
Ugggghhh, I'd be better off in an older home.
DR Horton doesn't build communities, they build ghettos.
All their dumb ass employees suck.
The Real Estate Agent was also a complete and utter moron.
The CEO of DR Horton Homes said 2007 would SUCK for the housing market and they expected poor sales.
I hope the assholes go bankrupt.

Former Gov Fife Symington Now Believes In UFOs?
WTF?
Fife Symington III, former Governor of Arizona, has finally come out of the closet and admitted that he believes that the infamous UFO sightings over Phoenix in 1997 were not of this world.
In other words, the guy who held a lame, mocking press conference making fun of the sighting now says he believes it was a real, Alien UFO.
=======
NOTE: You think this idiot is bad, he was the best we've had here in Arizona over the last 100 years.
The current Governor, Janet Napolitano is a total low grade moron and complete nitwit liberal asshole who wants to let more illegals into the state, raise property taxes, auto insurance rates, and the sales tax. Build stupid mass transportation systems where only poor (mostly illegal workers) can use them!
Plus Arizona is - - -
Number 1 in Identity Theft.
Number 1 in Mortgage Scams
Climbing fast to become #1 in High End Property Foreclosures
But of course if you believe in UFOs, always wanted to be abducted by an Alien (what Kind?), then hell Arizona may be right for you !!!!!!!

She advocates bailing out idiots who got in way over their head during this current bubble.
Typical idiot - "I lied on my 340,000 dollar loan a year ago, now I cant afford the adjusted monthly increase! Help me Hillary! We need a bail out!"

Hello.
I found your website on Google –
Real Estate Tips (www.Arizonalistedhomes.com)
That led me to this Blog Link.
I also found this stupid advertisement from a Realtor in Arizona on craigslist.org
The summary of the ad is …
I am A Real Estate Agent that runs MLS Flat Fee Business. No gimmicks. Just MLS entry for more exposure to the market for a flat fee of $999 + the co-op you want to offer. Let me know if you are interested in learning about the service.
Team Vision Point Hearthside Realty
My comments to this and every other useless ass Realtor in Arizona.
(1) What a flipin rip off. This simple service should not exceed $150.00 with a reasonable cost of $99.00.
(2) I will find a house myself. Screw all you Real Estate greedy useless bastards.
P.S. – For your personal info JACK
1) I signed your recall petition to get rid of Elaine Richardson, the Arizona Real Estate Commissioner
2) I love your website and suggest everyone read it before buying or selling a home.
3) You really know how to kick ass, Realtor ass that is!

Think about this before moving to Phoenix –
My true story:
Lending Company Underwriters!
WTF!
How is it possible that a person is pre-qualified to buy a house by a lender and then, 1 day before closing they ask for income verification, yet nothing has changed since day 1, and they suddenly are not qualified? We have a buyer on our house, set to close tomorrow, and then this! He's PRE-qualified and hasn't changed jobs, etc, and now the underwriter has decided that his income isn't enough??!! WTF?! They are the ones who told him how much he qualified for and we worked with him on the price to stay within budget. We’ve been in this for 3-weeks and now, at the 11th hour, this scumbag underwriter changes his/her mind? How is it that these people have so much power over people’s lives? We have to move too, and everything hinges on one lousy underwriter to doing their job, and they randomly change their mind? What a bunch of Frig-nuts! Oh, the excuse I got from a 3rd party was that pre-qualified means nothing, it only counts when they are ‘Pre-Approved.’ So where the HELL was the dumb ass Realtor, why didn’t they get involved and keep shit from falling apart? Thank GOD we are moving. Arizona sucks. Unfortunately we have to start over with the sale of this home!

I always try to keep an open mind, but I can tell you from current experience that Phoenix Arizona is the home of some of the worst Realtors, Mortgage Brokers, and Title Companies. Add to this is a host of con artist and conmen that makes the drug gangs look like their standing in line for pre-school.
I found this BLOG Forum just now on Yahoo.
I love it, unfortunately not enough people read and do homework before selling or buying a property whether for residence or investment.
You give plenty of FREE information.
I hope others will take advantage of it before they get stung like we did.

Another reason why Realtors Suck:
If your house isn't selling quickly enough for them, what's the first thing they suggest?
LOWER THE PRICE!
Why are they so quick to lower the price?
Because it costs them almost nothing.
If you drop the sale price on your home by $10,000, they only lose $300 in commission.
Meanwhile, you're out 10 grand.

I know you don’t want names published so lets say his name was Scott and he has a website and his wife’s is some kind of idiot photographer or artist or some shit.
Anyway – LOSER is his real name.
I agree my experience with Real Estate Agents in generally has been very bad.
But in Arizona ALL REALTORS SUCK, so do the Mortgage Brokers, Title Companies, Appraisers, and HOAs.
If you are thinking of moving to Arizona, do all the Real Estate yourself. Find a house listed as a FSBO. Hire a lawyer let them do the contract and select a Title Company.
Get the loan yourself.
Watch out for the HOAs they are a nightmare here.
Most are run by a bunch of Fem Dom wannabee Nazi bitches, often Realtors – what a conflict of interest that is.
Stay the hell away from Realtors in general, but especially in Arizona the white-collar crime capital of the world, they are all losers with a capital ‘L’

Mortgage News in America Continues to get worse and worse all due to stupid ass Mortgage Brokers and greedy lenders with exotic and creative loans that trap unsuspecting low income or poor to borderline credit borrowers with promises and bullshit.
Here is one heartbreaking story that is becoming commonplace across America today.
Note only part of this tragic story was reposted because of length.
THORNTON, Colorado - The lights are still on inside Foreclosure No. A200642668 so while there's time, have a look around.
Here's the living room, still covered in the worn blue shag Angela Sneary always intended to replace with the sheen of hardwood. And downstairs, through a curtain of plastic beads, is the basement where husband Tim was going to knock out a wall and put in a foosball table. Step this way and the Snearys point out the places where they never could find the cash to hang a ceiling fan, install a hot tub, replace the siding, etc. with a long list of abandoned ambitions that seem almost too big to squeeze into the modest four-bedroom tri-level. Owning a home is all about finding humor in unfinished projects. But in the house set back from a bend at 11030 Eudora Circle, the Snearys never had the luxury. They ran out of money first. Then, they ran out of time. Soon, they'll almost certainly be out of a home. Buying a home is the American dream and a record number of Americans nearly 70 percent are living it. Many families, though, likely never would have become owners if not for the tremendous growth over the past decade of a new kind of mortgage business called SUB PRIME Lending. It long seemed like a winning proposition for all parties. Now the costs are becoming apparent and they are very unsettling. SUB PRIME LEBDERS peddle new kinds of mortgages, often requiring no money down and made at "teaser" interest rates that soon rise. They target marginal borrowers with weak credit or questionable incomes who previously might not have gotten a loan at all. By last year, sub prime loans made up 20 percent of the housing market for new mortgages. But as the housing market cools, thousands of sub prime borrowers are struggling to keep their homes. A number of sub prime lenders, saddled by failed loans and a shortage of cash, have folded or staggered. Clearly, this isn't how the American dream is supposed to play out, but who's to blame? The experience of families like the Snearys show how the squeeze created by questionable lending can quickly be compounded by family economic crises, a lack of planning and knowledge, and the rapid shifts in a Real Estate market that once seemed unstoppable. "You were set up to fail," one Real Estate agent told them. It's a sobering thought for anybody who shares the American dream. After all, it hits so close to home. The new family has combined incomes around $55,000 a year. They moved from rental to rental, aspiring to buy. There dream home cost $204,000. We thought we were getting a deal. The agent said he'd find them a mortgage, no money down. The Snearys say they never thought to shop around. More than two years and 100-plus homes later, agent Kent Widmar a Mortgage Broker claims he has no memory of the couple or the deal. But he knows his customers and sub prime loans are the only loans most can get. The Snearys say they expected to borrow at a fixed rate of 6.5 percent. That would put monthly payments at about $1,290, a little more than rent. But at the closing in August, all the numbers were higher. The Snearys were offered two loans, both from a Texas sub prime lender, Sebring Capital Partners. The first, for 90 percent of the purchase price, was at 8.31 percent, set to adjust after two years. The second, for the remainder, was at 13.69 percent. The house would cost $1,623.80 a month to start and it was almost certain to rise. Looking back, they'd asked more questions or considered walking out. But everything was in boxes, and they'd given notice. So they eyed each other nervously, and agreed to work more hours. Then, they signed the papers.
Today, many buyers find loans through a Mortgage Broker. Many of those loans certainly sub prime loans come not from local banks but from loan originators. These companies hold the loans briefly before reselling them, earning a profit and passing along the risk.
The mortgages are usually bought by a bank or Wall Street firm. Sometimes a loan servicing company, which pockets a fee for administering each mortgage, acts as a go-between. Then the loans are bundled and resold as securities to investors.
The new system works well in many ways, but the incentives driving the players are very different. The Mortgage Broker and loan originator, rather than being restrained by risk, pursue the profit that is the reward for generating new business. An enthusiastic Wall Street provides cash for yet more loans.
But the willingness to downplay the risk of sub prime loans turns a business of caution into a hedged bet. Often, buyers qualify for these loans only because they can afford payments at the introductory rate, without considering how they'll make good once the rate goes up.
While home prices kept rising, it hardly seemed a gamble. Lenders and investors embraced the high returns generated by such loans. For consumers with shaky credit, it was easier to buy a home, easy to refinance and easy to sell for a gain. Then the market turned and for many homeowners, the escape hatch slammed shut.
There will always be people who fall behind on loans. Now, owners in trouble are living in homes that may be worth substantially less than they owe. They can't sell or refinance. They are ensnared in loans whose costs keep rising. It is a vortex that's difficult to escape. Schloemer calls it "the perfect storm."
Conclusion – Congress promises to look into it. Hold hearing and do something. What hearings are needed you idiots. The problem is massive and could cause a serious recession. Wall Street has flagged this as a cash out problem with devastating ripple effects. Keep in the mind Wall Street is part of the problem. So what is this NEW Democratic controlled Congress doing? The answer is nothing. Congress (all politicians on both sides of the aisle) answer to powerful lobbyist like The National Association of Mortgage Lenders and the National Association of REALTORS both totally useless and driven by profits.
Moral of Story – Trust no one including politicians and local, state, and federal agencies that are supposed to protect the consumer!

Craigslist and Commercial Realtors:
Posted this in the Real Estate section –
I find it really annoying that Realtors are getting completely free advertising with potential great returns. Now, don't anyone be claiming that their margins are so close that they be broke it they did or any such crap. They pay for commercial advertising, so why not here too.
---------------------------
Date: 2007-February
Now, not to disparage the hardworking commercial Realtors in BC, but perhaps Craigslist should charge for commercial postings here? Check out the number of postings greater than a million bucks. Now, that ain't mom and pop selling the house I growed up in, that's for sure. These folks are making a good profit on a sale, and should be kicking back some of that to support the site (which probably doesn't need it, or donate it to the Food Bank or some worth cause. It's tax-deductible, as y'all know). Just a thought (actually, more like a notion, because some Realtor will almost certainly flag this.
And why would someone flag this, I wonder? It seems fair comment. If you think so too, start flagging the postings of obviously commercial Real Estate sales give no indication of having paid for their advertising.

REALTORS:
If you hate Realtors as much as I do, and think the vast majority are used car salespeople, do what I do. Call a few of them from off the CL Real Estate board and kick the tires on a house they are offering. It makes for some good fun to listen to there sales pitch. I just had a guy tell me there is no traffic in the morning leaving Maricopa, it's a quick straight shot right up to I-10. Last time I was out there at 7am it looked like a parking lot.
Anyway, this guy was fairly high pressure as far telling me I should get in my car and drive right out there. Also, the house he owned was way overpriced.
So when you’re bored today, take 5 minutes of your time and waste theirs!

Mortgage Crisis Hits Million Dollar Homes:
More about how our government has failed us, how Wall Street and Mortgage Companies using the backs of consumers to get rich through endless greed. Now it has struck back into the wealthy – Hurrah, let them get a taste of it!
Latest News as Follows:
NEW YORK - Sheriff Leo McGuire presides over foreclosure auctions in Bergen County, New Jersey, where the bidding for a home reached $1.2 million last June a record for one of the wealthiest counties in the nation.
Homes sold on the auction block for as much as $852,000 this month more than quadruple the median home price in the United States. County officials believe they are close to setting another record soon.
In Troy, Michigan, credit counselors are seeing the face of foreclosure. While predominantly poor and minorities, increasingly are neither. Nowadays, homeowners holding professional careers with six-figure salaries regularly drop by her office. More and more they come from upscale Michigan communities such as Independence and Clarkston once the summer retreat for Henry Ford, founder of Ford Motor Co.
Because of the financing that was possible, so many people bought the bigger house, the million-dollar house with the bowling alley or the tennis court outside people across all income brackets are having financial hardship.
For those on the frontlines of the growing U.S. mortgage crisis, these are the early signs that the explosion of subprime loans made to mostly poorer borrowers is reaching higher ground. The damage is hitting homes financed through jumbo loans for more than $400,000 and so-called Alt-A loans that are a notch above subprime and a step below prime.
Americans already are facing foreclosure at a record pace, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. Lenders started foreclosure actions against more than one in every 200 U.S. mortgage borrowers in the last quarter of 2006. About 2.2 million foreclosures due to bad mortgage loans may cost U.S. homeowners $164 billion, mostly from lost home equity, according to the Center for Responsible Lending, a Durham, North Carolina-based research group. In the last three months, the percentage of foreclosures for U.S. homes valued at more than $750,000 has climbed to 2.5 percent, the highest since early 2005, when RealtyTrac, a online marketplace for foreclosed properties, began tracking data. The overall rate of foreclosures also is on pace to increase by a third this year.
Everyone's looking at subprime. The rock they aren't looking under are the adjustable rate mortgages and teaser rates and low money-down loans claims a portfolio manager for Pacific Investment Management Co., the world's biggest bond manager. It's going to affect prime as well.
Newport Beach, California, with homes for more than $1 million in May last year after the property appreciated more than 20 percent in two years. California, with 3,384 foreclosures of higher-scale homes since December, is leading the nation, followed by Florida and New York, according to RealtyTrac. In February, the median price of existing homes, which represent 85 percent of the housing market, rose 0.9 percent to $212,800, according to the National Association of Realtors.
CDOs The latest foreclosure data also may spell trouble for Wall Street, where pools of bonds may be susceptible to non-performing loans that underpin debt vehicles known as collateralized debt obligations.
CDOs group debt based on credit quality and are similar to mutual funds in packaging securities to help diversify risk. In CDOs, the strongest debt is at the top of the capital structure, helping to smooth out any drag on performance from weaker debt, such as subprime loans. Just as more expensive homes are beginning to fall through the cracks, the fear is higher-rated bonds within CDO structures may be vulnerable. The declining performance of subprime loans have resulted in CDOs losing about $20 billion in market value, according to investment bank Lehman Brothers.
UBS Securities said in a report last month that rising delinquencies may cause losses within some subprime mortgage bonds rated as high as the "A" category.
FRAUD-FUELED At the Justice Center in Hackensack, New Jersey, on Friday, the wood-paneled room is filled with about 40 people and the auction is routine. The first property on the sales sheet lists a Korean homeowner with $509,000 of outstanding debt. There are no bidders. Deutche Bank, holder of the busted loan, buys the property with a quick $100 bid. Sheriff McGuire calls the process "one of the most distasteful parts of my position." He places most of the blame on bankers who allowed questionable lending practices. "This might not have happened if not for these new type of loans," McGuire said, minutes before the auction. The loans also have helped millions of Americans purchase new homes, he concedes.
"The banks took a chance on the future, and the homeowners took a chance so there's enough blame to go around," McGuire said. Still, "the banks and lenders have largely set them up for this downfall." Adding to the grief, mortgage scams and con artists trying to take advantage of distressed homeowners abound, boosting foreclosure rates, county workers said.
"It's not the American Dream anymore," said Fran Napolitano, a county clerk in Hackensack. "It's 'who can I stab next."
In Detroit's suburbs, hit hard by the U.S. auto industry downturn and financial troubles at General Motors Corp. and Ford Motor Co., the story strikes home each day. It's sad. It's just an awful feeling. You hope that you can come up with a financial plan to help people remain in their homes, but sometimes it's not the best thing for them. These days, eight credit counseling sessions a day, 40 a week, remains full and is increasing. If they can't afford it, sometimes the best thing for them is to just walk away is now becoming standard advice.
The AMERICAN Dream is Dead …
This is all to blame on 4 key things:
1) Mortgage Brokers
2) Greedy Realtors
3) Lack of Action by the Government to Protect Us
4) Congress with its head up its butt hoping things will work out while we export millions of jobs overseas and they cater to special interest groups, and foreign lobbyist.

Many people here have complained about various Real Estate Companies ...
I have to wonder why do idiot consumers keep using them?
Look people I too have been screwed by two REALTORS -
Century 21 and RE/MAX ...
Now I just do it myself.
Stop being lazy, go out house hunting on the weekends, look at open houses, find something you want, hire a 'Real Estate Attorney' that's a lawyer who specializes in Real Estate Law and contracts, buy the property you want.
If selling. sell it yourself it's called a FSBO - You don't need NO Stinking Realtor.

I see there are a lot of disagreements on which Real Estate Company is the worse.
Personally I hate John Hall & Associates ...
They are my choice for the worst Real Estate firm I've ever dealt with, although they all have been bad.
John Hall is the worst of the worst in my experience.
We can all agree on one thing however, ALL REALTORS SUCK and should die a terrible painful death, but the key word is they should die ... and real damn soon!!

The governor's appointed Queen of the TROLLS former Real Estate Commissioner:
Elaine Richardson, now a Democrat AZ State Senator for the 11th District.
A total waste of human skin and a total abortion of the female body. What a useless shit she is.
People of Arizona you voted for Janet now you have to live with all the ugly twit bitches she appoints.

Phoenix Valley Coupe Homeowners said...
The worst Realtor discussion .....
I wish to add the following ....
Some years back I used the so-called V and S Team at John Hall & Associates (Tatum Blvd Office in N. Phoenix).
The only thing these 2 Jackasses know how 2 do is TALK, TALK, TALK ...
They eventually sold my house by lowering the price:
Proof any idiot can sell something if the price is low enough.
This was before FSBOs were so popular.
If I knew what I know now I would have sold it myself
You don’t need any stinking REALTORS - save all that money (usually enough to buy a new car with or put another down payment on a second home).
I wish I did!
So for the record - John Hall & Associates SUCKS.
Never use them, never get involved with them, in fact stay the hell away from Real Estate Agents and Mortgage Brokers like they are rabbit dogs.
Because if you use one you will be bitten.

If I worked the way they did I'd be fired.
Lazy, useless, no account, no good assholes - that's all REALTORS in my opinion.
But my vote goes to Century 21 as the worst.

Tempe Town Lakes Homeowner said...
My input on the worse REALTORS (for Arizona) -
Thinking of moving here, the worse Realtors can be found easily, they will be advertising in the Services Section under Real Estate on craigslist.org on either the Phoenix or Tucson boards.
Anyone Real Estate Broker, REALTOR, or Real Estate Company that stoops to advertising on CraigsList are pathetic low life losers who can't get clients or are the stupidest shits on the planet, oops may I digress they are Realtors so stupid is their middle name, but these are the bottom feeders of the bottom.
The Mortgage Companies and Mortgage Brokers who advertise there are lower than slim from a snail slug and twice as dirty.
Con Artist and Identity Thieves are rampant here in Arizona ... scum of the earth!!
Now you stupid ass REALTORS, unlike you I have a real job which I now have to go to.

It's best to avoid Realtors all together but I no you won't until you have been burnt bad enough, and then some idiots keep going back thinking a different agent may be different - so foolish you are.

He put together a ridiculous flyer riddled with endless spelling mistakes and blurry stupid uninteresting pictures.
No one showed up at all.
The REALTOR refused to hold an open house.
I had to take my home off the market and sell it myself.
He like all the rest of the idiot Real Estate Agents and their useless Designated Brokers are incompetent, so I fired his ass.
I will never use a REALTOR again –
Long live FSBO'S (for sale by owner).
This confirms ALL Realtors Suck !!!

They use these absolutely totally uninformed nitwit Rent-A-REALTORS that are clueless as to what’s going on, and their permanent Real Estate Sales Staff people are arrogant shits.
Toll Brothers - stick your friggin homes up your butt !!!
I hope this gets back to all your investors and they sell off your damn stock.

They serve NO useful purpose but our politicians just don't get it.

Jack,
I read your admin Blog notice.
Real Estate Agents and Mortgage Brokers are scum.
Why would you expect them to post their name if they insult you?
Cowards and gutless wonders they are, an insult to anything decent.
It proves they cannot take criticism, all they want is their lousy six percent commissions.
Their heyday is over and they know it.
People are waking up, the ones with sense that is, and doing it themselves. Finding their own home without an idiot tag along with lackadaisical comments any stupid grins on their faces leaving business cards everywhere they go.
‘Sellers’ are going the ‘For Sale by Owner (FSBO)’ route.
Real ‘Buyers’ are realizing that they never have needed a Mortgage Broker, why pay some moron a fee (called points) on your loan when you can go directly to the lender yourself.

Hi Jack,
Been looking at your website (www.Arizonalistedhomes.com).
Great stuff. Also been perusing the postings here.
Lots of negitism abounds.
Will be retiring end of this year and just half to get out pf this damn cold weather.
Had three choices for a new home in warm weather –
Phoenix Valley, Las Vegas, and Coral Cables.
After reading the negative about Arizona on numerous web pages, I guess Florida is looking better and better.
Certainly will use the information posted on your consumer website about Real Estate and Mortgages.
Never really realized how greedy these damn bozos that work in the Real Estate Industry are.
Unfortunately I will half to use a Realtor to sell my home. I am in one of those less desirable areas to live.

Saturday Afternoon House Hunting:
I went out house hunting today, my intention was to see a few selected ‘Open Houses’ but as I was driving in Northeast Phoenix (Arizona) I stopped at a NEW subdivision being built by Dr Horton Homes.
A Gated Community just off Union Hills west of Tatum.
There was this cute little blonde Real Estate agent, salesperson. I inquired about the homes, so she started the normal Q&A, which led me to the basics I would like. After a few minutes of giving me literature and pricing she gets around to … Yep, there are NO more homes available here (sold out she said). So she starts in about another subdivision just about a mile west of her … blah blah blah …. It was more like several miles west and north, not gated, and the prices were the same.
This is why you dumb ass Builders are NOT selling homes.
First if the subdivision is sold out put up a friggin sign that says so, don’t waste my time with bullshit.
Next don’t try and sell me something further away and for more money with fewer amenities.
Gated communities in Phoenix / Scottsdale are in high demand and that raises the price of the home about 15,000 to 20,000 dollars.
You don’t sell something at the same price further out without a gated community.
Finally stop hiring these useless sales “pitch’ Realtors that are clueless about the friggin market and try and sell you something you aren’t interested in.
This girl was about as bright as a burned out light bulb and as about as useful.
And, D. R. HORTON
Your CEO was right – you’re gonna have a bad year in 2007. I hope your stupid company goes bankrupt.
Pricing homes and communities the way you do, hiring idiots as sales people, you deserve to go under …
Got DR Horton Stock –
Sell It - - -
Sell it now!

DR HORTON
To the poster who stopped at the new subdivision just off Union Hills, (Phoenix Arizona) I experienced the same thing last weekend,

I could train a CHIMP to hand out price sheets and flyers.
I am glad I don’t own stock in this piss ant company.
Continued proof that regardless of the capacity or role a Real Estate Agent or their stupid Broker is in…

Toll Brothers Aviano

I agree I went there about 18 months ago, nothing but arrogant assholes and rent-a-retard Realtors.
I offered to pay CASH within 48-hours of allowing me to select the Lot # that I wanted and had with me a check for $50,000.00 good faith money.
They weren't intereted.
All I got was we are taking names and reservations, we will call you for the next avaiable lot.
I wonder where they get these morons that work for them?
I also wonder what is in the minds of people who invest in Public Listed Companies with nothing less than contempt for BUYERS.
Nothing you IDIOTS beats CASH in hand, nothing !!!
I went to Palm Springs and bought a house, screw you Arizona rejects.
Especially screw TOLL Brothers Builders.
The only time I'll ever buy a home from Toll Brothers is when I am at your Corporate Bankruptcy foreclosure, which I hope is real damn soon.

This Blog truly saddens me.
I am a professional Realtor of 10 years, full time, not a house wife, not a shifty money grabbing dirt bag as you like to refer Realtors to. I am 38, love my job, love my clients, have a wonderful business with mostly repeat clients. I do know several horrible Realtors but one bad apple does not make a bunch. I am constantly trying to raise the bar of professionalism within my company and community and I work hard every day. I am generally their first impression to our city, a tour guide, a friend. Because of that I will proudly post my name and hope that I get to change your mindset that there are great Realtors out there who respect the field and love what they do.

An example was Mimosa would tell a prospective buyers that the front yard landscaping was included in the HOA fees. Total bullshit. Once the buyer found out, the transaction was ready to close, so most went through with it anyway.

DR Horton may indeed suck, I don’t know but their homes are historically lower priced than Toll Brothers, which are supposed to cater to upscale homebuyers.
Toll Brothers does anything but that.
Toll Brothers employs total fruit-loop Realtors and low-grade construction bozos along with their security / structured wiring contractor (vendors) are completely at a lost to get anything right.

Finally a place to share thoughts, ideas, and complaints about Realtors, Real Estate Transactions, and Real Estate Companies.
My vote goes to two different Real Estate Companies in Lousiville Kentucky:
Century 21
and
Coldwell Banker
Both Century 21 and Coldwell Banker Real Estate are losers, worthless, terrible unqualified jerks.
Moving to Louisville KY is bad enough but dealing with Realtors here is very very very bad.
Kentucky gets the award for inventing Real Estate Agent Idiots.
And, the lawyers here are even worse, if that is possible.

You have been Googled.
Just looking for a place to complain about my Realtor online, found this Blog.
Understand you don’t want a person's name listed.
So therefore, I vote for the worse Real Estate Company to be -
Realty Executives
Albuquerque, New Mexico
And, for you Realtors, I will email this Blog address to every property owner I know in the United States.

Home Sales plummeted more than 20% in Santa Clara County in the last twelve months and it is clear somewhere close to 20,000 Real Estate agents in the San Francisco Bay area have changed professions or are jobless because of plummeting home sales.
It is a damn shame they are NOT all unemployed and jobless.
Realtors Suck.
Come in say it out loud, know it, understand it, REALTORS SUCK -they are useless wannabe trolls that take your money and give you nothing back.
Screw all Realtors – Sell it yourself or hire a Real Estate Lawyer if buying, either way you will save an awful lot of money and force another troll into unemployment.

Hello Jack,
Hey I was just perusing the Phoenix Arizona Real Estate Services section of craigslist,org and came across this ad:
\\\\\\\\\
For all home purchases over $250,000, choose from a 50" Plasma or LCD HDTV; 42" Plasma or LCD HDTV + surround sound system; a front-loading washer and dryer set; a kitchen appliance package; or a cruise out of San Diego.
Note: This offer only valid where the SELLER is offering the ‘Buyer’s Agent’ a 2.5% or greater commission.
////////
This is the perfect example of why you started this BLOG and what it’s all about.
It comes down to: ‘Sellers’ pay some dumb ass Realtor to take advantage of them.
Are You Selling Your Home?
PLEASE wake up sell the house yourself. Reduce the price and pass it straight onto the buyer, Forget dealing with scumbag Realtors who rip you off.

Hello Blog Guy,
I too just got an email from some people I know in Albuquerque NM.
My vote for the WORST Real Estate Company is

I vote for ....
Nicholas Homes
Casa Grande Arizona
As the WORST of the Worst for New Home Builders.
They employ illegal aliens out the whazoo; there construction is extremely poor even by Arizona standards, and their subcontractors especially there structured wiring and security subcontractor (installer) is a complete and udder moron.
If you bought a home from Nicholas Homes bend over and kiss your money good-bye.
If you’re shopping for a home don’t even consider these second rate shit-head builders.

Well my vote is going to:
CENTEX Homes
These idiots are lost souls in a sea of morons.
Anything they touch is a friggin disaster.
Quality is a alien word to Centex.
Over priced is a way of life to this builder.
May they go bankrupt soon.
As it's been said, If you own stock in Centex sell it, if buying stock, avoid Centex.

Got an email asking me to participate in voting for the 'Worst Real Estate Company' –
My pick for the worst is really 3 different companies, all in ...
Salt Lake City Utah
I have owned 2 homes, had to deal with 3 different Realtors (Real Estate companies) ...
These are all totally worthless and the Real Estate agents must have all been useless bored ass housewives with nothing to do, they had NO common sense and none of the three women in each of the following companies cared one bit about the seller or the buyer. They had an attitude lets get it done, close fast, and pay me my commission.
The worst Real Estate Companies in Salt Lake City, Utah are:
RE/MAX Realty
Coldwell Banker
Prudential
Total losers - I have learned as so many have the hard way, screw these damn useless ass Real Estate Agents, and the con artist companies and Brokers they work for.
Do it yourself.
I will NEVER use a Realtor again.

Searching the Internet, typed in Centex Homes, this Blog popped up.
I would like to add, Centex Screwed me.
I bought a Centex Home, lots of options and extras.
Now after several years all my interior Cabling -CAT 5 Structured Wiring is bad.
The cost to replace it, $5,000.
Where do they get these friggin Security / Structured Wiring contractors?
The cable was bad when they put it in.
Normally these cables (if not exposed to sunlight) will last 15 to 20 years, I got 4 years.
Mine is crumbling like rotten wood.
Never buy a home from CENTEX BUILDERS
Centex Sucks.
One more time, Centex Sucks.
I agree with the previous Centex poster, I hope the dirty con artist bastards go bankrupt.

One Very Pissed Off Anthem Homeowner said...
Got an email from a guy in Flagstaff about this BLOG, he knew I would be interested.
My vote, hands down, for the worst Builder and planned community is Anthem, A Planned Community by:
Del Webb Corporation
Anthem is located just north of Phoenix Arizona on I-17. It has created a nightmare for traffic, the homes are plagued with structural problems because of bad soils, the walls and foundations are cracking, the builder / developer sold out and the entire community SUCKS.
If moving to Arizona, don't buy a home in Anthem.
If you hear the name Del Webb, run like hell and fire your Realtor for even suggesting any home built by these assholes.
Once again Del Webb Sucks

The two worst Real Estate Companies up here are:

These are anything but professional. How can some dumb nitwitted babbling Realtor actually think this is a profession?

So you're thinking of moving to warm and sunny Phoenix Arizona, well dwell on this:
Phoenix, Arizona is also known Tweakerville, Arizona.
It's the tweaker capitol of the world.
Why is it that all the screw ups of society move to Phoenix?
The tweakers, crack heads, homeless, mentally ill, felons, gang members, drug dealers, and all the other throw aways of society seem to move here to Phoenix Arizona.
Its so sad that all the shit people move to what used to be a really beautiful and great city.
Oh, lets not forget the 4,000 illegal aliens that cross the Arizona border everyday that create a nightmare for our schools, social system, and police not to mention the crowed freeways.

I guess I better get me an independent home inspector and have them go over these two properties with a fine tooth comb as they say.
Then call my mouth piece (lawyer).
On the other side of reality - Yes, I fully agree ALL Realtors Suck.
I have bought 5 houses, sold 3 and all my Real Estate Agents were something right out of The Twilight Zone.

Reference Nicholas Homes.
I bought a home in Casa Grande Arizona from Nicholas Homes.
I have to admit, there construction quality and ethics would be POOR by Third World Country Standards.
The contractor Nicholas Homes uses for their cabling contractor (structured wiring they call it - phone, satellite, cable TV, security, etc.) are absolute morons, low grade nitwit idiots.
Nothing is in the right place, most of the shit doesn't work, we have decided to attempt to rip it all out and hire a professional.
Don't ever buy a home from Nicholas Home Builders.
In fact don't buy a home in Casa Grande Arizona.

Unhappy Phoenix Newcomer said...
Thinking of Moving to Phoenix Arizona, it’s hot here and my advice is:
DO NOT MOVE HERE!!!!
We are from Chicago and I hate Phoenix. Everything is at least 20 minutes away from anywhere. The cops do nothing but set speed traps. They are more killings and kidnappings here than I have ever seen in Chicago. People don't know how to drive in this town. There are at least 5 - 7 accidents every morning and another 5 - 7 in evening rush hour traffic. A lot of these are fatal. Yes the weather is great but if I could move back to Chi Town I would. Drugs and Crime are so rampant and prevalent here, it's nuts. If you like to go out, FORGET IT!!!!! There are no good lounges and the town rolls up at 2am. Last call is 1:30. Customer service sucks here as well. Nobody gives a shit if your A/C shuts down and your house is 100 degrees inside. A service tech says they will be out to look at it and then often never show up. And this is with any type of service or repair. There are stupid election signs and Real Estate 4 Sale Signs everywhere. This is also the SCAM capitol of the USA. If anything, just vacation here during the winter. Chicago is a great city and offers so many things to do year round. Don't throw away the greatest city in the USA to move to this Mexican infested drug smuggling hot ass oven.
Oh, yes and the Realtors here are the dumbest bunch of unprofessional sales talking scum you will ever meet.

The organization is comprised of little mommy boy types and sissy ass complainers. Useless doesn't even begin to describe any of them. Avoid this company as though it is a disease. After my transaction was completed I wanted to kill the Realtor and the dumb ass Broker. It's a good thing Murder is illegal.

Angry Johnson Ranch Centex Homeowner said...
to the poster about ...
CENTEX HOMES
I also bought a Centex Home in Johnson Ranch (East Phoenix Valley) and I am having all kinds of problems.
The after purchase Centex Service Warranty people are just so so but the issue is you shouldn't have any major problems with a NEW home.
That's why people buy NEW.
If I friggin wanted problems, I could have bought a used home, for less money, and wouldn't have had to wait to get it built.
CENTEX HOME Builders Suck !
Johnson Ranch area sucks, getting in and out of there is a nightmare. Traffic is a real bitch. No planning, poor roads, bad construction, and problems with utilities.

Hello Jack,
Typed in Centex Homes, Phoenix ARIZONA on the search and your BLOG popped up.
Cox Communication (the TV Cable, Internet, and Telephone supplier here) was just at my house in Encantobella (located in Northeast Phoenix), they told me the same thing, all the cables installed by the builder, Centex Homes, are bad and must be replaced.
Now I have to replace them.
I am not the original homeowner. In fact this house is about 5-years old and I think I am the 3rd owner.
To make things worse, this is what is referred to as a Cox Only Community.
So I can't even switch over to DSL because there is no service here.
In addition, the structure of the home makes it impossible to install a Direct TV Satellite Dish. It has to be put on a pole in my backyard. Who the hell wants a pole in the middle of their yard and a hole drilled in the side of their house for sat cable?
CENTEX Homes - You suck.
I also hope you go bankrupt, real soon.

DR HORTON Homes
I recently purchased a DR Horton Home in Townsend Delaware January 2007.
It was a spec home.
There were a lot of problems on the initial walk through and punch list like a roof leak. My common sense should have been keener that day and I should have walked away but I didn't.
Now I am regretting every moment of owning a DR Horton Home.
This builder sucks!

Why Centex Homes Suck -
From an actual Centex Homes Purchaser's contract:
Buyers must agree not to: FILE ANY PROTEST, GRIEVANCE, OR COMPLAINT… INCLUDING THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU OR ANY MEDIA ENTITY, TELEVISION OR OTHERWISE… AGREES THAT NO SIGN OR BILLBOARD OR WRITING OR CHART OR DRAWING CONCERNING THE CONDITION OF THE HOME AND/OR PROPERTY SHALL BE ERECTED OR PLACED IN SUCH A WAY THAT IS VISIBLE TO PERSONS PASSING BY THE PROPERTY
Ask yourself: If the home builder didn't have any quality issues, why would this contract element be necessary, which eliminates your first amendment rights (freedom of speech). Armed with clauses, lawyers and generous campaign contributions this corporate builder and most builders like them continue to operate solely based on a bottom line, not the interest of the consumer (buyer) and general public.

Reposter Man said...
I put down $20,000 on a Toll Brother's house in April'06. At the time the house was selling for $777K. The house isn't expected to be completed until summer 2007.
A month after I put down the deposit they dropped the price for the same model to $734K.
I called their sales office and at least 2 employees promised me that they would reduce my price to the same. After calling and calling for about 6 weeks, they came back and said that I would get a credit of the difference for options and upgrades, but only if I used their mortgage bank TBI.
I kept asking for this in writing, but never got anything.
6 weeks later they gave me an offer of upgrades, that was only equal to about 65% of the difference, even though they have a have huge margins on options and upgrades, therefore it really only cost them about 30% of the difference in the price.
After this I backed out of the deal.
Toll Brothers verbally promised me that I would get my deposit back. However, after a month, the project manager called me to tell me I would get nothing.
The whole experience has been horrible.
Toll Brothers have lied over and over and now they want to keep a deposit on a house that doesn't even have a brick laid yet.
Talk about feeling ripped off.
NEVER BUY FROM TOLL BROTHERS.
Toll Brothers Builders Suck !!

If you see anything on that board you avoid it.
If these bozos have to stoop to advertising there they aren't worth the powder to blow them to hell and back.
What losers, and many of these Realtors, Real Estate Companies, Mortgage Brokers, and Lenders advertise repeatedly, often numerous times in one day ...

As I went to lunch today, as usual, I observed dozens of oblivious mental midgets doing the same ridiculous things as usual.
Then I realized they were all REALTORS and Mortgage Brokers scurrying around trying to figure out how to screw the next consumer (Home Seller or Buyer) they encounter.
Then I had an epiphany. Population control is a wonderful thing.
Kill them all off and the world will be a better place.

How about solving the real problems with the Home and Property failures in America?
If a REALTOR is showing signs of wanting more than 1% or whining just LOCK THEM UP for a few days for a good Psychological evaluation.
You cannot do an effective psychological evaluation in just a couple of hours.
When the Realtor realizes he/she is not going to go anywhere for a few days you'd be surprised how their attitude about screwing their Sellers or Buyers will start to change and they will either get out of the business or charge a realistic commission of just 1%.

Top TRUTHS on this Blog:
(1) ALL REALTORS SUCK but the worst are Arizona Realtors, the bottom slime of the bottomless pit of ooze.
(2) Arizona Realtors and Mortgage Brokers with their cronies monitor this BLOG on a regular basis.
(3) Jack is Great, Jack is Good, and Jack is the famous Encantoman. He is a friend of the Consumer (Home Buyer and Seller). Jack hates REALTORS.
(4) Realtors and Mortgage Brokers and other slime in the Real Estate Industry, be glad Jack does not allow any names to be posted here or you trolls would be known by your real names and everyone would shun you. Then your family would all have to divorce you and wear bags over their heads to protect their embarrassment in public.
(5) Realtors are turds, even those who possess formal education, which is generally none, they can’t function in public but they are only good at whining and cry babying.
(6) The National Association of REALTORS is the biggest scumbag lobbyist anti American anti Consumer Anti low and middle-income homebuyer sleaze bags in existence.
(7) Filthy low life useless ass twit appointed Real Estate Commissioners in every state designated to protect the consumer are nothing but x-Realtors themselves, and puppets of the Real Estate Business and its operating cronies.
(8) Elaine Richardson is a worthless bureaucrat now turned state senator and epitome of why America is failing today, and why the Housing Industry is over priced and in economic ruin.

Hi Jack,
Hope the BLOG Archives are returned soon.
My Realtor can best be described as a Mental-Midget Maggot with an inferiority complex and a compulsion to become rich over night at the expense of others, in this case his clients.
This dweeb before I fired his ass worked for:
RE/MAX Realty
As a result of this experience, I have decided to look for a home on my own and when I find one I will take your advice and hire a Real Estate Lawyer to handle the transaction.
Thank goodness I didn’t do anything stupid like sign one of those idiotic Buyer / Broker Agreements, but the RE/MAX maroons where certainly pushing it. Another reason to terminate their ugly butts.

As reported on CNN today the Real Estate Housing Market nationwide has taking another turn downward. There are a record number of homes on the Market for sale and it is a buyer’s market coast to coast. Once the middle of summer arrives, many Seller’s will be even worse off because they will have to sell and move to get into another home before school starts again in September in most parts of the country. Most experts now believe the first week of August 2007 will be a bust for seller’s and a boom for buyers. So if you can wait to buy, wait. It you can hold off selling for at least another 2-years hold off.
