Kondaur is the worst, just had a deal CASH with them asked to close Dec 27th, it is now Jan 2oth and still not closed, their attorneys are horrible, had to beg for the signed offer, girl said she misplaced it. I will never sell another one of their listings.
NOTHING IS FOR FREE, shame on you, make them pay or do not do them

Kondaur is the best. I don't have to spend a penny on market prep. So I don't have to apply for reimbursement. Reasonable commissions. Steady flow of listings. Usually take my pricing and rehab advice.
When I was speaking to Eric Bates (possible alias) I asked for the office address. On Google maps it showed me the middle of a highway. There was no building.
Anyone who does REO knows that Safeguard will contact you directly if they are involved. I am just so sick of these little con artists. So similar to Team Lear

Even the reputable companies are getting bad. Citi Financial ripped me off and never reimbursed me for some lawn care that was done prior to the property going into "REO" status. I had to bill it differently than I normally do. The property had two pit bulls on the property and squatters living in the home but the contact at Citi insisted that I get the lawn cut prior to it going into REO status. The contractor had to carry a fire arm when cutting the grass. I sent numerous invoices and the rep at Citi claimed that my W-9 was incorrect. I fixed it about 10 times. They never verified that it would be paid and the rep is apparently no longer there. This is going on a year. I now have another prelist where the property still has a squatter in it and I have had the roof tarped plus initial and recurring lawncare. No payment yet. I am getting ready to send Citi a letter in regards to this. I am out over $800 from the last property. This current one is about $500. The contact did state that Citi was behind in payments. I have sold dozens of properties for Citi but something is now going on with them.
why don't these banks vet these companies? I am not sure why the banks even need these middlemen corporations. It just costs agents more money in the long run. Why is Broker Price Opinion even in business?
Colleen, I was told one time by Chase that the banks have to be "arms length" and that is why they have all these stupid third party companies!

Chase contributed to the demise of at least 1 BPO company. I forget which one but it stopped paying us while Chase owed them more than one million dollars.
I got a call today from Tom at REO Solutions. Said they collect $500 up front for the services provided by Safeguard? You get refunded on first closing? This does not sound right to me? Are they just another scam.
