My letter to the Realtor

Alex,

My house was fraudulently mis-represented. You told us that, "I have a feeling nothing is scathingly wrong with this house." You had a duty to disclose that the land housing the septic did not belong to the home we were sold but to the City of Danbury. While it's true that there was no complete and accurate a-2 survey you told us you were at town-hall and in looking at the partial A-2 that was .14 acre, your public handout was .25 acre. In fact, it was no error that the property sold to us and you could care less how it effected my husband and I. I feel you not only took advantage of the fact that we trusted you, you lead us directly to your cousins house. After speaking to several attorneys the last one said to not realize that there is more to the land you would have to be a complete idiot. I do not think that is the case. You clearly knew what you did, and for whatever reason did it anyway with no thought of my family.

You have basically ruined our lives with this action. I cannot sell my home, the financial and emotional burden that we have had to endure because of this action is unspeakable. If at any point you told us about this house we would have walked away & you knew it. We have suffered tremendously. At this point the house in unsellable. The fact that you waited until closing, when we were signing papers to tell us it had a shared well was selfish and horrible. It's legal and every time the power goes out I have no running water.

I was so angry at you, I did not have words to express what I was feeling. I was mad because you were going to have no consequence for your actions. I started to have anxiety attacks and became physically ill due to the fact I was stuck in this home with no options. My family has suffered tremendously. Due to the fact you said I could build up & out, now that I cannot do this it changes everything.
This neighborhood was not a good match for us, yet you didn't care. These people are tweaked and I have needed to leave for years and yet I could not. I am holding you personally responsible for your actions. No one is ever buying this house under these circumstances.

I realize that I forgive you. I also realize that if if others do not know what you have done, God sees everything! Mat 10:26-27 (NIV) "There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known. What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops."

Colossians 3:13 NIV Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

What I expect and what I and am asking is the commission back from both the sale of my this house and the sale of the condo. I feel that is more than fair. Not only have I spent $60,000.00 on repairs to this home it's unsellable. I put $32,000.00 down. I have two daughters and they are missing out on a better life because you chose not to disclose important information about this home. It's wrong Alex. I am asking you to step up & do the right thing. The heartache you have caused my family has been unbearable. We are asking you to make right the wrong you did.
