WE WON!!! :)

Some of you know that we had to file a lawsuit against the people/realtor that sold us our house in N.C. They lied about so many things and went out of their way to deceive us just to make the "sale." And we didn't even realize just HOW badly we were deceived until we tried to sell the house so we could move to Ohio....our realtor (who helped us sell the house) went digging in to the "history" of that house and uncovered all the lies.

Sooooo, because we had to pay LOTS of money to get the house to where it needed to be to sell it, we had no other way to get our money back....lawsuit was the only option. We TRIED to work a deal with these people (realtors) before having to get a lawyer but they wouldn't budge.

And on Friday we found out that WE WON!!!

It feels SO GREAT to know that these people DIDN'T get away with their greediness AND LIES! And for those of you out there selling/buying a house....PLEASE research your realtor, get references, call the Realtor Commissioners office to find out if they have a bad record etc. etc. etc. Because this whole experience WAS NOT FUN!!

Congrats!!!
Great advice! And like with cars (ask Joey about the car he just bought that has a blown motor from the previous owner not putting OIL in it) - our homes can have hidden problems too. SO glad you won your lawsuit!
What a great way to start the holiday season!
