I'm in the process of buying my first house, a <a href="http://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sale/fore_lt/">foreclosure</a> from <a href="http://www.zillow.com/mortgage-glossary/Fannie-Mae/">Fannie Mae</a> in south Florida. This all started the end of June. I put an offer in, they accepted. Upon inspection we learned that there we 3 open permits on the house for an addition that had been put on by the prior owners. Fannie Mae agreed to finish the work, get the final inspections and close the permits prior to closing. They couldn't get everything done before our original closing date, so they extended it. After completing the original work, the code enforcement officer found other things they wanted done. Fannie Mae couldn't get to these before our second closing date, so the listing agent sent us and extension, which I signed and sent back. Now the listing agent, who I'm not sure I trust, has come back and said that Fannie Mae is going to finish the new work but that they won't sign the extension that they sent to me and that instead they want us to send a termination letter and resubmit our offer on a new contract. The listing agent said they still want to work with me and aren't going to re-list the property, but I just don't trust them and he won't put all of this in writing. Can anyone give me any advice on how to proceed? I have a lawyer and am waiting to hear back from him but since its the weekend...not sure when that will be. Thanks for any help and sorry for the rambling.<br \><br \>7 replies Sat, 29 Aug 2009 01:53:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Fannie-Mae-foreclosure-and-issues/273389/ 2009-08-29T01:53:00Z looking for houses foreclosure only not condos or land or apts. juse houses foreclosures http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/looking-for-houses-foreclosure-only-not-condos-or-land-or-apts-juse-houses-foreclosures/272822/ 1 reply Thu, 27 Aug 2009 15:38:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/looking-for-houses-foreclosure-only-not-condos-or-land-or-apts-juse-houses-foreclosures/272822/ 2009-08-27T15:38:00Z why do you list land unde homes. no houses vacant land. why not list under vacant land foreclosure http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/why-do-you-list-land-unde-homes-no-houses-vacant-land-why-not-list-under-vacant-land-foreclosure/272024/ 1 reply Tue, 25 Aug 2009 21:39:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/why-do-you-list-land-unde-homes-no-houses-vacant-land-why-not-list-under-vacant-land-foreclosure/272024/ 2009-08-25T21:39:00Z why am i not getting any info on my request 138 fox glen dr naples fl? http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/why-am-i-not-getting-any-info-on-my-request-138-fox-glen-dr-naples-fl/258857/ 2 replies Tue, 21 Jul 2009 19:31:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/why-am-i-not-getting-any-info-on-my-request-138-fox-glen-dr-naples-fl/258857/ 2009-07-21T19:31:00Z Any Agents interested in Referral Fees for Naples, Fl and Marco Island Buyers? http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Any-Agents-interested-in-Referral-Fees-for-Naples-Fl-and-Marco-Island-Buyers/252946/ Naples, FL and Marco Island Florida Buyer Referral Fees <br/><br/>We will pay licensed brokers a 20% referral fee from our buyer's brokerage fee at closing for providing Buyers for properties in Naples,Florida or Marco Island,FL<br \><br \>0 replies Sun, 05 Jul 2009 17:42:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/Any-Agents-interested-in-Referral-Fees-for-Naples-Fl-and-Marco-Island-Buyers/252946/ 2009-07-05T17:42:00Z is there a hoa fee and if so how much annually? http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/is-there-a-hoa-fee-and-if-so-how-much-annually/236442/ &nbsp;<br \><br \>3 replies Tue, 19 May 2009 00:00:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/is-there-a-hoa-fee-and-if-so-how-much-annually/236442/ 2009-05-19T00:00:00Z If a property has been foreclosed is there a way to make an offer directly to the lender? http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/If-a-property-has-been-foreclosed-is-there-a-way-to-make-an-offer-directly-to-the-lender/220985/ If I know a property is going to be auctioned is there a way I can make an offer to the <a href="http://www.zillow.com/directory/lenders/">lender</a> and avoid the auction<br \><br \>3 replies Wed, 08 Apr 2009 14:28:00 GMT http://www.zillow.com/advice-thread/If-a-property-has-been-foreclosed-is-there-a-way-to-make-an-offer-directly-to-the-lender/220985/ 2009-04-08T14:28:00Z How do you report an UNETHICAL REALTOR?
