Very upset over my recent house searching experience...
The story goes like this:
Finally came across a house that both my husband and i like... And after the second viewing, we got our agent to call the seller's agent to negotiate on the price and we both agreed on a price.. We told the seller's agent that we need to arrange to come down again the very next day to show the house to my mother-in-law and will also give him a definite answer...On the next day at around 11am, the agent drop us a call and tell us to meet at 2pm.... Both of us were quite excited then, becoz we are certain that we will be buying the house.. At around 1pm plus, our agent suddenly called us and told us that another buyer outbidded us and already got the cheque ready.. Despite that, the seller's agent still tell us to come down because he told us that due to his professionalism, he feel that he should wait for us since we got the priority as we 'so-called' offered him first last night..We were really glad and faster rush down....
Eventually, we reached there, let my mother-in-law to take a look at the house and told the seller's agent that we are buying the flat. But he was telling us that the price we need to pay is 5K higher than the price we agreed last night.. i was like "Huh, didn't we agreed on a price last night?"He told us that he's representing the seller and he shouldn't keep the seller in dark when there's another buyer offering 5K more...OK we understand and compromise... We don't mind paying 5K more as we like the flat.... And that's not the end of story..!!! ARGH..!!!
He continued telling us that it's unfair to the other buyer that is waiting downstairs [OMG.. why did he ask the other buyer to wait downstair.. he should ask them to go first and wait for an answer..] and that we should draw lots... [OMG.. i'm buying a resale flat, not BTO] So i asked him "Why should we draw lots?? i thought you asked us to rush down because you feel that we have the priority and that's why you waited for us ?? And what the reason for doing this now??"
And he used the LAW to reply us saying that as long as no cash/cheque is received from us, the deal is not closed.. Ya i also know that, then why don't he just accept the cheque from the other buyer and got our agent to inform us that the deal is off instead of asking us to come down..!!! After that, our agent told us that the other buyer is very aggressive.. She is willing to pay not only 5K more than us but also 1% commission for the seller's agent...That means the seller agent will get 2% commission from the seller + 1% commission from the buyer... At the end of the day, why do i feel that he trying or waiting for us to offer a better price...Really pissed off by this property agent..
Haizzz... Why is it so hard to buy a house in Singapore nowadays ?? Expensive yet still selling like hotcakes.. Everyone is snatching for a house... Really hope that my next flat viewing will be better... Bless me..
