Very poor agency relationship and communication
I hired Marife to short sale my condo. I contacted her 3 weeks before the trustee sale date however, she waited til the last day before the trustee sale date to contact my lender. We almost did not stop the sale. Then she accepted an offer without letting me know. I got upset and told her to tell me about any offers that come thru. After the buyer backed out, she AGAIN accepted another offer without telling me. She also never gave me copies of any documents that I signed until I asked for them. She did not even show me the offer contract. She asked me to perform some construction work on her house in exchange she told me that I would get money from my lender once the short sale escrow closes. Later, I told her that I wanted to cancel the listing because I wanted to apply for a loan modification instead. I told her that because she is no longer selling my condo, she must pay for services renderred to her property. She refused to pay. I will be reporting her to the DRE and placing a Mechanical Lien on her house. I will never deal with her again!!!!
***CONSUMERS BEWARE***
Agent Marife Ronquillo was hired as a seller's agent of a short sale property that was occupied by tenants. Tenants were promised a 30Day Notice to Vacate (accdg to Tenant Laws) once the escrow closes. Agent was made aware that the seller and the tenants came to find out about fraudulent activites that were going on throughout the transaction. Agent Ronquillo looked the other way, did not do anything and allowed the transaction to close. Agent Ronquillo then gave tenants only 3 days to move out after escrow closed. Tenants were forced out and left homeless and distraught. We will NEVER trust Marife Ronquillo!
