Margaret Duba, one of the realtors, was unfortunately very deceiving and I wound not trust her to assist you in a sale. She was helping my family look at homes and even brought us to showings and had many email and phone conversations. As out of state buyers we were never informed about needing a buyer agent to represent us, we assumed she was our agent working in our best interest, WRONG. When we decided to invest time and money into a property she was selling we were not informed upfront that she was not working for us as a buyer. Her advice at that point became questionably unethical. We were given poor advise at was not in out best interest (or the sellers) and after the deal fell through only 2 weeks after Purchase and sales agreement was signed we lost out deposit because of deceptive omission and uneducated advice. The contract was misleading and at no point explained to us. In the end nothing was legally done wrong by her or her firm but if u don't understand or have a professional reading your contracts don't trust peoples word or integrity, even if they appear nice or to be helping you. Also don't let anyone pressure you like they did to my family. Final thought, and example to the real character of Margaret. After our family could not come up with the funding to purchase the property she asked us if we could "borrow the money from family, or come up with it "some other way" Adding the seller can "take you to court for performance".-via text message. Not the kind of ethical tactics i expect from a honest realtor. This info was brought to the Owner/ Broker Alan DeStefano who seemed unfazed by my concerns. In fact he was Condescending and disrespectful over the phone with me. Please read reviews and do your homework before getting help not just for individual realtors but there brokers as well. Thanks
