Nosy neighbor, mouthy inspector ruin home sale

[trophy8]

After talking to all parties involved, or accused to be involved, the only call I may need to make is to TREC.

The suspense is killing me

who cares. In this market list it again it will sell for more

[Dale Moser]

who cares. In this market list it again it will sell for more

And raise the price...

this, and the neighbor is likely just a chatty old guy...

One thing though is that inspection stays w the house for 3 yrs i believe, so whatever you do DONT ask for it bc then you have to disclose it to any potential buyers.... Id say they wanted out anyway so just take the high road on this one

Had a nosey neighbor come up while a buyer just so happened to be around at my old house when I was coming home after the scheduled showing. He definitely said way more than I wanted him to say about the cost of houses down the street from mine being cheaper... lol It sold in a week with multiple offers but some people just dont know when to shut up.

Grumpy old neighbor saw all them screaming rug rats and porch monkeys the buyer brought along and did the only thing he could do

Next group will get the ol Indian graveyard story. Then all the freak things that he hears at night.

I'd be a little hot under the collar.

I would throttle the neighbor and file a complaint with the state licensing board on home inspector

From what I read it was not the home inspector, it was the termite guy. That makes it even worse, his area of expertise has nothing to do with foundations. He was just spreading a rumor so to speak.

The scene from step brothers comes to mind where they dress up as klan members

I'd be nothing but taillights in the distance when hearing those words....

We looked at a house that had a previous owner shotgun suicided himself inside, we were back in the car before the realtor finished the subject. Probably the Newport Indian graveyard spirits that made him do it. Just saying...

May be more being blamed on the old man neighbor than is deserved, without talking to him. Sounds like the RE agent took something that was said and ran with it for some other reason.

See how far back you can go on Google Earth. I there are pictures prior to construction of the house, there should be a picture of the so called pond. If it is not there make a copy of the picture to show buyers, and get a lawyer if you end up losing money and sue the neighbor for claiming it was built over a pond when you have proof it was not.

Interested to know the agents name since they probably represent in Granbury too. We will be selling a house in the next few months. And want to know who to avoid. I already have a listing agent lined up. And I know it isn’t him…..

[Man]

Old neighbor probably meant no harm at all.
