The Fed cut rates again!

Woo hoo! OK - I know the long-term interest rates are not completely driven by the Fed, but this is still good news.

Looking at Houses

Friday afternoon, I am going to lookat 2 houses with my dad. They are in Westwood, right by HP. Both are foreclosures and are on the market at $464,000 but need ALOT of work. The MLS # are 076093956 & 086002720. I'd be looking at adding sq ft and totally revamping the insides.

Let me know your thoughts!

Closing house in Vancouver

Just drove in to San Diego at 4:30pm... left PDX last night at 4pm. 1100 miles, 16 hours.
Realtor in PDX is completely unprofessional. Our contract (the one I signed), had the commission listed as "6% for first 30 days, 5% there after"... and then at closing she said never "saw" that the contract was at 5%. So, she refused to honor the 5% and her broker said they'd cancel the deal... so I am out $3200 unless I want to sue her: which I am seriously considering. The realtor never even sent me a Settlement Statement, so I was completely blind-sided at closing.
She even had the guts to call me and start reaming me out and said, I quote, "Shame on you for trying to cheat me out of my full commission". Well, I say, "Shame on you Carol for not honoring your contracts and trying to muscle money out of your clients."
I think this is completely unethical and would never recommend that anyone work with her. Carol Murray at Barbara Sue Seal Coldwell Banker.
So, should I sue her? Is it even worth the money? Do I have any other recourse?
