Unprofessionalism and Incompetence
The review highlights the incompetent and neglectful behavior of agent Russ Lentz, who represented the buyers in a home purchase transaction. The transaction took an excessive 175 days to complete, with multiple extensions and failed loan attempts.
Lack of Communication and Diligence
The agent failed to monitor the transaction, leading to last-minute notifications and lost opportunities for the sellers. He also ignored attempts by the sellers' agent and the buyers' attorney to assist with financing, resulting in further delays.
Incompetence and Lack of Knowledge
The agent demonstrated his incompetence by allowing his clients to sign a document he didn't read or understand. He also showed a lack of knowledge about prepossession agreements, attempting to argue that it was a simple rental agreement and not part of the agreement for sale.
Negative Experience with the Agency
The reviewer had a terrible experience with the agency, citing the agent's laziness, rudeness, and incompetence, as well as the owner/broker's uncooperativeness and confrontational behavior.
