Something kind of funny for today…
Apparently, my mom is the back up bidder for the house that I wanted?
(Is that my mom in the window?!)
When we submitted our offer, we went through a different real estate agent/company from who was “offering” the sale. You know how you see the real estate sign out front with the number to call for information & stuff? Well, we went with our own agent. It used to be that you HAD to go with the company that offered it, but they changed the rules a few years ago & you can go with whoever you want. Anyway, what I’m trying to say is that the people who presented the listing had no idea who we were.
My mom calls up the people who presented the listing & inquires about the property. They tell her that an offer has been accepted & gave her the amount of the offer. They then proceed to call my mom like 3 more times & told her that if the offer fell through, they’ll be sure to let her know & if they could do anything else for her in the property department to let them know.
WHAT. THE. FUCK.
I actually submitted an offer the first time & now I have to worry about my mom swooping in & taking this property away from me should it be offered for sale again?
Haha. It’s funny because my mom wouldn’t do that to me because she’s my mom, but the real estate company doesn’t know that & how many other people have they told the same thing to?
It’s such a cutthroat thing to buy a house!
