If you don't think you've gotten a fair shake by the listing agent why not contact his broker as a first step. If the listing agent has not resented your offer fairly to the seller's your agent should have stepped in if that what is felt. There is a code of ethics in the RE industry but all do not follow it closely, shame.

I agree on all points here Tim. Public service or any other for that matter gets old fast especially when providing it for FREE. :mrgreen:

Tony, I hope my questions aren't "lame."
Caitlyn, Comment "lame". I posted this comment after reading several of your posts in this forum and others where you seen to take the low side in a discussion and not the high side. It's always good to point out problem areas but some of your comments where negative and not really warranted. There will be no further statements of this nature to you as you acknowledge my point with the reply.

Great point Matthew.
My suggestion is not to become an agent. It cost money just be an active licensed real estate agend and if you want to be classified as a Realtor you will have to join their organization for another $500. There are many cost to working in the real estate industry. I am a licensed realtor and have been so since 1977 but have resently hang up my license to work more on my own investing rather helping others. It takes time even when your an agent to find properties so why not just use other agents to do the ground work, you can use as many as you want but you may find 2 or 3 that do a really good job for you. IF you become an agent you will always have to disclose this on all your transaction.

Da Deep, You may be able to purchase with 40% down but no one here can answer your question as there are a number of other things that are taken into account for a mortgage. Only the lender your working with can tell if they will loan to you with 40% down with other criteria provide to them. There are no long NO DOC loans out there to be found.
