    Ive never heard of it for a house. But i guess there will always be someone who will give you .50c on the dollar for your house; then charge u regular price for the one you buy. Good luck and read the fine print.

    They will pay you full market value if you buy their home. Has anyone heard of this before?

    Hello,

    I bought a property last year that was listed at 3700 sq ft but now after some comparison it feels more like 2800-2900 sq ft. What can I do legally in this case. It seems to me the previous owner lied on purpose. He really seems like a schemer and probably wanted to boost property value. Please help me in this matter, I would appreciate it.

    Thank you

    Yes Sir, thats the same house I posted about. Supposedly the sq footage is correct. Please give me some feedback though since Im new to this stuff. Thank you

    kidcash,

    You will have to forgive my dry sense of humor and I have been accused of this before but:

    On a open discussion board I would not be telling everyone you felt you bought "A Pig In The Poke" and then it wound up getting "Bar-B-Qued."

    The property certainly was insured, so I would start with my insurance agent on what they are going to cut a check for and if you have a problem with the amount, then I would look at alternative methods to resolve the issue.

    Yeah, I understand that it may seem rather suspicious but to tell you the truth I only said it because I have nothing to hide and it was an unfortunate mishap since it was domestic violence that caused the fire. Thank you for the feedback but I still have another question. Can I see how much my insurance co. will give me before I can hire a public adjuster in case I feel if they are undervaluing my loss?

    Thank you very much. So youre saying that I can do the same myself or is it worth hiring a public adjuster for their expertise and maybe they can maximize my settlement while saving me time. I just dont want to get shafted but I also want to know my options as well. I also have all the time in the world to scour my insurance policy and make detailed calculations if need be. The only problem is I just dont know the ins and outs of the insurance trade and wanted to know if the public adjuster can save me all this time and if all that is really worth a 10% fee.

    Anyone with public adjuster testimonials or anything that can help please feel free to let me know. Thank you[ Edited by kidcash on Date 01/15/2007 ]
