Sellers Personal Property – San Jose Short Sales

I received an email from the buyer’s agent on one of my San Jose Short Sales which stated:

“My client says he has faithfully hung in there for a very long time and could probably have gotten a better deal if he would have looked elsewhere. He therefore feels he should get something for his faithfulness and what he wants is the washer/dryer/fridge.

He feels 6 months of waiting should at least get him this. He really feels he should get something for his long suffering. Please at least approach your client on this.  If she has any kind of “counter” please advise that too.”

The buyer has patiently waited out the process while his agent continues to work on getting FHA site approval for the condominium complex which must happen before the buyer’s lender will fund the loan.

Seller’s response to Buyer’s agent: The appliances are not included in the purchase contract. The items your client feels he deserves for waiting for FHA site approval are the seller’s personal property. The seller is willing to sell the appliances to the Buyer. She has no obligation to give the buyer her personal property as a condition of the sale given the appliances are not included in the purchase agreement.
