    I trusted Bill Gilbert as my agent to keep me informed and explain things to me. We had four people…read moreinterested in the house and one very interested who submitted a deposit within the first week. When the buyer's offer came for my house, Bill notified me of the offer. It was a seller's market and the buyer really wanted this particular house. A few weeks before closing, I asked Bill what were my costs/fees at the time of closing. He was hesitant to respond. Finally, I learned that Bill offered to the buyer, that the seller (me) would pay 6% of the buyer's closing costs and the full agent fees of 6%. The agent never discussed this with me. I never agreed to this. However, I had signed the forms electronically. If you go through those dot loop electronic documents, it is difficult to read everything. The document jumps to the signature blocks. But I thought my agent had my best interest in mind. I wanted to at least break even. I had little or no assistance when purchasing the same house previously, paying most or all closing costs and 6% agent fees (when i did not even have an agent). I had to take out a loan against my 401K retirement in order to pay the closing and agent fees. B.G. and the seller did not offer to assist. In selling the property, I told Bill Gilbert that I wanted to be able to break even, pay off the mortgage and pay back my 401K loan. I was not able to pay back my 401K loan with the settlement. A hard lesson is learned. I trust too much and expect communication would have explained what he was offering to the buyer at my expense. Advice, do not trust selling your house through B.G. and expect your interests to be covered. Hire an attorney to look over all documents.

    I went in to apply for a rental. I wasn't treated very well, dispite having an awesome rental…read morehistory. They said they'd search for me and contact me when they found something. I said I need something immediately but they've totally passed over on me. Their offices are a bit gross too.
