So we went to view a house today, and really liked it, decided to buy it, was about to go to the bank for bank loan tomorrow. I think it slipped the agent mind at that time, but when I was requesting a copy of the title deed of the house, she told me that 3 weeks ago the owner's friend came to view the house too, but according to her, they don't seem interested in the house, if not they would've made preliminaries, that's according to what she said.

So anyway, this agent is supposedly told me she will try her level best and put in good words for us to the owner, and to let the owner know we are very keen and have already decided to buy it right away as long as the owner give the nod to the agent. So I'm thinking, since the other party I assume, is still in the process of considering ( since 3 weeks ago ), whereas for us we have already decided and confirm to buy, what are our chances honestly ?

Hmm, but the property is at 600k, priced by the agent at 600k. So we did not ask for any nego of the property, does this means that the agent / owner is not keen to sell us the property at it's valued or stated price point, or is all these just a stunt from the agent in order for her to buy time to let the owner consider ? Should I bear any hope to continue to wait further ?

So macam ni how ? Agent ada highlight cakap, " I hope you know my processing fee of 1% is due to be pay upon SPA signing " of course this one we know, we are ready and prepared to pay for 1% agent fee, so apa masalah ? Memang tipu ke atau betul betul cakap ? So do we wait ? Sebab if agent dont release copy of title deed for us, how we go bank ? We can't proceed with bank unless agent say Ok, u now pay deposit first, then u go do bank loan.
We viewed the house yesterday, decided to buy it, and was plan to go to bank for bank loan today, but yesterday we requested for the copy of title deed of the house to show the bank, but that's when agent told me about there's this other party, who is the owner's friend who viewed the house 3 weeks ago, so owner is now asking his friends if they still interested, if they not, then agent will proceed to give us copy of a title deed, what do u think of all of this ?

Ur agent making stories only la i suppose...

Booking fees (i.e. 3%) to be paid to agent's realty COMPANY bank account, then balance (i.e. 7% when sign SPA) to be paid to ur lawyer, ur lawyer will settle with their lawyer.  I suppose its similar no matter in which states' practice...

Like others said, set a deadline for ur agent. Since ur agent stories' is owner agreed to proceed, then ur deadline set it nearer.

Got a separate question here. I'm about to pay 2% earnest deposit to the owner's lawyer, the agent told me to create a cashier order from the bank, and put in the name of the owner, as i understands it, shouldn't the cashier order be put under the owner's lawyers name ?
