Please bear with me as I've just got home from watching The Descendants (slightly depressing) and having a few beers at Thai Stick on Fillmore...

So.. I've been closed out from a few deals this year. Mostly duplex short sales.

I've noticed a couple of these sales have been dual-agent.

My question: What are the possible cons of using the selling agent and taking advantage their greedy whore-like tendencies to secure a sale for oneself?

I mean, any offer letter I would write (or have the greedy whore selling realtor write) would include an condition contingency. I would have my own inspectors check out the property.

I could give a fuck if the greedy whore makes double commish. And it if helps me get a good deal on an owner-occupy duplex then, whatevs.

Or am I missing something? Comments welcome.

He is also
not offering any cash back. HE wants to keep all 6 percent.

Remember he has to give a portion of what he makes to the broker too. Also are you sure he's the listing agent? Often times, the listing agent company sends another agent -- who will be a buyer agent representing you in the transaction :). you may not want a buyer agent, but still you may get one.

ALSO not willing to negotiate the price. I am just
wondering if he is just trying to represent more than one
buyer and trying to squeeze the money.

I think he's playing hard ball because more than likely -- he does have other legit buyers who are also interested.

May I suggest you read Donald Trump's "Art of the Deal" and tell me4 how well he has treated others in his climb to the top. I don't think he is bothered by what is coming around.

PROFEESIONAL BUYERS AGENT - INVESTOR - SALES ASSOCIATE - PROPERTY MANAGER 35 years experience

You mean the guy who managed to bankrupt a casino?

He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, cash stuffed into his pockets and filled his first diaper with diamond studded meconium.

Yeah, that was a really difficult "climb" to the top.
