Jennifer was extremely helpful in selling some property we had in a tough real estate market area. I felt a personal connection when talking with Jennifer and her help was much appreciated. She helped secure a sale rate that was in the middle of what I had expected and I was okay with the figure offered by the buyer. I think the final sale price was much lower than expected and in MY opinion, due to a couple of factors: 1) It was a low cost sale of 5 lots in a poor market area, but Jennifer stated that there was still the same amount of paperwork required. I view the Buy/Sell agreements as nothing more than filling out a pre-existing form which only requires filling in the blanks. I don't think a 16-20% sales commission is necessary. 2) N.C. required an attorney be involved in everything. Too many attorneys added to too many costs. An extremely un-necessary system that wouldn't reveal the closing costs until after the contract was signed. In MY opinion - it was crooked and the attorney knew it or his assistant was at least aware of it before the contract was signed!
