Sean Lam - Listing Agent and his team made several misleading or unauthorized steps in the listing of my home. Using less than adequate marketing campaigns they attracted potential buyers by dropping the listing price of the below market price. They did not pursue the collection of a deposit left by a buyer that defaulted on a contract to buy. The agent also mislead me on a lease to own contract (also his client)that was nowhere near what the buyer wanted to offer. Lastly he listed my home without any authorization with a condition I never agreed to (5% offered toward closing cost of home - nearly $13,000!). I have attempted to cancel my listing agreement with the branch broker Charlotte Abraham, but she ignores my emails and calls. My only choice is to hire legal councel to assist me with this matter, and/or BBB and finally process a complaint with the South Broward Board of Realtors. It was really the biggest mistake I made, and I would definately urge the public not to use Keller Williams 128be89

Keller Williams and Sean Lam observed 100% the clauses on the contract and the law of the State of Florida throughout the transaction.  

 

The buyer failed to obtain the loan committment, therefore by law, Keller Williams must return the deposit to the buyer.  

 

In addition, never on the MLS was stated that the owner himself would give 5% to the buyer, in the Broker's Remark section Keller Williams stated that Bank of America would cover the 5% for the eligible buyer. 

 

Lastly, the poster asked for a $70,000 non-refundable deposit for the lease purchase option, the buyer, whom Keller Williams found, considered the amount excessive. This was simply a negotiation that didn't come to an agreement. There was no misleading on any parts. 

 

Keller Williams maintains that the company conducted in compliance with the law entirely. Unfortunately, the poster didn't get what he wanted and wrongfully put the blame on us.

Even if a full price offer comes in, there are always other terms in the contract a seller might not like (closing date, earnest money, qualifications of buyers, etc). I think it would virtually impossible for any agent to force a seller to accept any contract or pay their commission. However once the contract is signed, it's another story. That would be binding.

Just do not accept any offers and wait for the contract with them to expire.  

 

You only have to accept a full price offer. Otherwise turn everything else down.
