Banks, RE Agents, and Other A*holes .:. Hump Day Easy Talk - Night Edition

There are days when everything goes wrong... and everything that you touch, do, act, is going wrong... It was one of "those" days today... As an excuse, I would say... it wasn't my fault in some way, but it is in a way that I have ALLOWED that it drowns me down...

Everything started this morning when I went with my wife to renew our renting contract for the next 3 years... I wasn't thrilled when I got a call from our real estate agent that they will raise our rent for another 50 EUR (they did that 3 years ago), but we have decided to accept the reality and go with it... Until we find something better as we are planning to move for the last couple of months... Renewing the contract would give us more time to search for a new place without the fear of "staying on the street"...

So, we went there to finish the job and when we almost finished everything, we got a cold shower from the agent saying that they will charge an additional 150 EUR for their services! I'm not an expert, but I suppose that all this time, for the last 10 years their "commission" was integrated into my regular monthly payments, but it looks that they need more for their "hard work"...

It's not that it is a problem to pay this one-time fee, it's the problem that it's unfair, injustice and very rude to present that in the last moments... and all that to your 10-year customer that has never made any problems paying rents every freaking month on time!

All that inspired me to create this vlog where I have mentioned some other "dirty" stuff that these people are doing on a daily basis... Again, I do see possible solutions for these kinds of behavior... and every time it's pointing toward cryptocurrency and avoiding all these MIDDLEMEN that are here to cut your earnings, your savings, and your freedoms...

Check out the video for more details...

Thank you for your valuable time,

This kind of thing seems to be a trend in the banking industry and with other service providers. If you want the privilege of speaking to a bank teller or loan officer you must pay a fee. To be fair we have a free checking account but still it isn't right to charge customers extra especially long term customers a fee like that and then to wait till the end of the conversation to drop that in your lap. NOT COOL at all. We are looking at buying my Dad's house. We will not use a RE Agent or Bank and will not have to pay any commission or pay for an inspection because my Dad will finance us himself.

You should definitely do it without RE vultures! If you can avoid them, that's great! Unfortunately, here almost everyone is doing everything through RE agencies and it's very rare that you can find the real owner of the property and directly finish the job...

Yeah Zoltan they have to get their pound of flesh. Way more than a pound in reality. Sorry you have to deal with all that. Thanks for the tokens and enjoy your weekend. 😀
