I am now 56 years old, and when I was one year old, I purchased a house for 450,000 dollars. This woman has been paying people to kill me because she insists on lying about her whole family agreeing to sell all of their houses.

But the fact that a one-year-old was the first to buy one just made her intensely angry at 12 years old. Ever since I was one year old, she wouldn't let me have a copy of the mortgage papers or live in the house.

Oddly, she pretended everything was over because people let her abuse me in several ways, but somehow kept making her just as mad as she was when this occurred when I was one year old. I am Carolyn Jordan; the house is located at 1821 Koehne Street, Indianapolis, Indiana 46202.

I was reading today about about new federal legislation that will eliminate the monopoly-enforced 6% commission for home sales, and I can only cheer that outcome. You have taken advantage of the home buyer for far too long, and this correction is overdue in coming.

Hear my experience - in my book you deserve 0%.
I purchased a home with the "help" of two lazy, inept Coldwell Banker realtors in 2002, and I have never forgotten the bitterness of the 10-month process of buying my home. I did almost all the work myself, did all the visits and inspections, and my first realtor went to one home with me then handed me printouts about 13 properties and told me "go check these out." My case was handed off from one realtor to another, even lazier than the first, with each having less interest than the one before. The home price was modest, and clearly the "realtors'" interest was commensurate - clearly not worth their attention, time and effort to help me find a home, because they were looking for more lucrative scores and spending more time with "valuable" customers. I reiterate: I did ALL the work, despite knowing nothing about the home -buying process, and you scammed me out of 6% for your "services.".

After the closing (which neither party's "realtor" even bothered to attend - in your ads there are all these smiles and housewarming gifts... what a JOKE), I wrote to the final agent and said that if I could give you 0%, I would gladly do so, because you did NOTHING to facilitate this transaction. By that time the first agent had been out of the picture for months, and clearly the second hand-me-down agent was even less motivated, because she would have to split the commission. I recall that she phoned me once to "earn" her commission.
This is certainly not limited to Coldwell Banker, but ever since that experience I have held Coldwell Banker in complete contempt.

My efforts to complain about the way my home purchase was handled were met with complete dismissal at the managerial level; basically I was ignored. Over the years I have tried to ensure that no one else falls for your scam, hopefully with some results. But I will NEVER forget how your and your agents treated me, and how you stole my money, and how you made me feel. Your company is beneath contempt, and crushed all of my illusions about home buying forever.

Companies like Coldwell Banker deserve bankruptcy. I wish I had never heard your name. The article I was reading today brought back all of my rage at your duplicity and greed, and how unfairly I was treated, despite my good faith efforts to complete the process and buy my first home. Even though it has been 22 years, I still feel the wounds of being treated the way I was, and having to pay unearned income to fund your scam.

Coldwell Banker is a fraud. You disgust me.

Happy to be able to finally say this - though of course you will just ignore my comments once again. Frauds!

The coldwell banker office in Alamogordo, NM has consistently lied about communication between renters and landlords to get things fixed. They informed us to call them in order to report problems.

We didnt realize until later that they wanted phone calls so there was no proof when they didnt do their job.

When we moved into our rental, the sprinkler system did not work. We informed coldwell and they told us the owner wasnt going to fix it. Years later, they charged us $1600 for landscaping when vegetation died, even with our watering efforts with a hose. The landlord was upset that we never told them the system was broken.

When we told coldwell that we informed them when we moved in, they lied and said they had no record of that.

We smartened up to start submitting issues in writing. Coldwell would finally fix things, but would then lie about the reasoning behind them being broken and blame us when it was normal wear and tear.

When we would try and fight these absurd accusations and refuse payment until getting proof and speaking to a manager, they would not respond.

We will be leaving reviews of this company on every single website we can, warning others to not trust this company. And warning them to put everything in writing so they can be caught in their lies to both tenants and landlords.
