What do you do if a listing agent delays presenting your offer?
I found a foreclosure that just came on the market. My husband who is a new agent in another county presented this listing agent with a full price purchase offer along with loan pre approval. We scanned an emailed the docs to her.

We believe the listing agent is delaying the presentation of the offer in hopes of finding a buyer of her own (without co-brokering). She said she did not know when she could present the offer to the seller/bank because of weather conditions. Is making a phone call/sending a fax/email dependent on snow fall?

Is there any recourse for stalling??

I had a job interview on Friday 7th Dec. I thought it went really well. I was told I'd hopefully find out if I got it by the end of the following week - which I assumed would be last Thursday or Friday. I still haven't heard anything. Be honest - at this stage should I just assume I'm awaiting a rejection letter?

Hi, I am a single mum and Im finding it really tough to get approved for any half decent houses especially when ive got couples making twice as much as I do applying for the same houses. I have been renting privatly for 3 years now but now I want to go through a real estate agent. I have perfect refrences, have always got my bond back, always paid rent on time, and i am quite a presentable person. But thus far have been knocked back on three rental applications.I just want to rent a home for my daughter as I am living in a townhouse with stairs. Any tips,hints or suggestions? It would be appreciated

For some time,It has seemed that the only way I could earn what I'm worth around here(FL), and make ends meet, was to do side-work, Now that has become full-time and then some. I can do almost unlimited work as a diesel mechanic for a small co. that wants to pay me by the job very well but as a contractor. I would like to find instructions on paying taxes, s.s, comp.?,unemp.?, incorporation, licensing, etc., to make this a legal and more secure thing to do full-time. I know a lot of other tradesman do this, plumbers, carpenters, painters, etc., but I was hoping for a website or association so I can work on setting myself up in business at night while I'm off. I'm particularly worried about getting injured in a work accident. Also any information preparing towards a business loan, towards more equipment and tools later would be helpful.

The personnel at AT&T stores always give you their business card. Sometimes they forget and offer more than once. It's obviously in their training but why? Do they get commission, is it for the appearance of good customer service and availability? I've gotten so many and haven't used one, it seems a little ineffective and wasteful.

Recently I received a phone call from a company calling me about a credit card I once had about 3 years ago. I was unable to pay the credit card off. Now it has been turned over for collection. The individual I spoke with advise me to open a checking account so they could draft the money from my account. The individual told me if I don't do this they will go through my employer and garnish my check until the amount is paid. He said the amount I owe is $5,000 but the company will settle for $2,500 if I give them $500 as a down payment and pay the rest of the money on a monthly basis ($78) until it is paid in full. When I told him I don't have the $500, he said he will waived the down payment of $500 and set up a monthly payment of $78 a month for me until it is paid in full. I am weary of this. Has anyone ever had any experience such as this. I live in Georgia and I do know garnishment is allowed. I don't want anyone to garnish my check. Please help me, is this the real thing or not?

This is a somewhat complicated story. I am signed into a one-year lease with a roomate. A few months ago, I left town for an extended amount of time due to stress related health problems. About a month and a half later, my rental office refunded my half of the rent for the current month. It turned out she had not paid the rent for that month. After weeks of my calls being ignored and different stories being told, I decided to return (1000s of miles) and see what was going on. Our rent is now 2 and a half months late and we are being sued. I return to her having moved a total stranger in, who also is not paying, and alot of my belongings missing or moved around. She gave me a finacial sob story, and having had hardship in the past, I feel badly. My rental office is offering for me to evict them from the lease and carry on in a one bedroom, less expensive apartment. I feel very guilty. I am not perfect either, but I have had a steady job for 2 years and neither of them has steady work.
