Glad to here all is well out west, bud! On the "must have latest and greatest" thing, my advice is to research carefully before making another major purchase....

Blank We are currently experiencing a large number of fraudulent sales entered on the MLS in which the property is listed for sale for a time, say 6 months,...
I haven't heard reports of a similar scam in our MLS. This article was in the paper this morning... http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/business/4156006.html ...
I often see that the agent has conveniently changed the list price to the actual sales price once a contract is signed. That is not exactly fraud but it really...
Mark, I understand the problem as I often see that type of thing with valid reasons. In large developments (in this area) the homes will be listed at the base...
Don, They are being coached to do that by some mortgage person, who tells them the appraiser has to report the listing history. Why woudl an agent change the...

Ricardo, Who cares if the state does not get them? I want to see them in orange jumpsuits, and hope they become, "Ringo's Girl", They fear not the state, but...

Chris, This is a tough one. First of all, if it was the original client that called a very short time after the report was delivered, I think I would chalk it...
I agree Roger. Agents here do not have to see the closing statement to enter the closing data. It ends up that some sales are "Hearsay". Mark Collins ... From:...
Mark, In a non-disclosure state like Texas, ALL sales are "Hearsay". I don't mean that as humor, it is the reality of having sales information reported through...
Dave, Have you read your MLS rules? Ours say nothing about the agent having to see/possess a copy of the Closing stment. I'm trying to get that changed. What...
Just had an interesting phone call, The borrower just called and cancelled our appointment this afternoon because I could not "guarantee" that I could bring...

Dwain: Was it really a "reviewer" - i.e., somebody with a license? Or just some flunky underwriter with a 6th grade education? If it's the later, and I suspect...
