Who is David Aman of Tonkon Torp? What Motivates David Aman to Want to Silence Industry Whistleblower Stephanie DeYoung? Is it Kevin Padrick's Money

Flat Out Real Estate Consumer Smackdown.

If the Real Estate Consumer is Harmed, Mis-led, lied to and TOLD that Summit 1031 is holding their money hostage, and somehow robbing them blind but the Truth is that someone else is actually holding the money up, taking HUGE chunks or the money and creating a smoke screen, well then the Real Estate Victims in all this Deserve to know the Truth.

Stephanie Studebaker is on a mission to tell the Real Estate Victims the Truth, she is being an Industry Whistleblower and telling what is going on behind the scenes that is in FULL DISCLOSURE and that the Real Estate Consumers Deserve to Know.
r
David Aman
wants her to NOT tell you, the Real Estate Consumer the Truth about where your money and going and David Aman of Tonkon Torp working on Behalf of Kevin Padrick of Obsidian Financial ~ Why are they Fighting so Hard to Keep You, the Real Estate Consumer from knowing the Truth? David Aman is seemingly on a mission to Shut up Truth Telling that May help Real Estate Consumers to understand what is Really Going On.
r
So if David Aman of Tonkon Torp FOR Kevin Padrick were to Succeed in shutting up the Industry Insider, the Industry Whistleblower Stephanie Studebaker - DeYoung then this successfully would Strip the Real Estate Consumers of their Rights to what is Really Going On.
r
The Real Estate Consumers are the Real Victims here and I feel that they deserve to have ALL the INFORMATION available so they can fight this, get justice, get their money back, and to know who it is that is taking their money, holding their money hostage and holding up their justice and in that putting their very life on hold.

Montana Board of Realty Regulations ... I am the Real Estate Industry Whistleblower and NAR / MAR is on the Move..


Ok, almost a Decade as a Real Estate Agent and My Very First Audit. Hmmmm wonder where that came from. Could it be because I yap and yammer about the Board of Realty Regulations NEVER auditing? Could it be the Realtor of NMAR whining to big daddy? Could it be all those Realtors attacking me at active rain?

Could it be because I am telling the real estate consumer the TRUTH about the Realtors at www.RealEstateIndustryWhistleblower.com ?

Could it be because I own http://www.CharlesMcmillan.com/ which is the name of the NAR president, I own the site to prove a marketing point. Could it be because I own www.RealtorSucks.com and many other sites as an Advocate for the Real Estate Consumer?

Well You bet it Could be, don’t think for one minute that the National Association of Realtors does not control your State board of realty. NAR has billions of dollars and they use it against the Real Estate Consumer.

You Deserve the Truth, I am tell it and for the first time EVER I am being audited. I had 17 agents, I got my Brokers license after 10 months as an agent, yes I waited til' the one year mark, so what I got it.. and no Audit... no help.. no assistance... no advice from the Montana Board of Realty Regulations. Since then I have seen consumers go to them for help and their "hands are tied" - they cannot fight the Association of Realtors .. no way.. no how...

I have asked for help on issues that concern consumers and I get nothing, they do not even provide us with advice or forms.. we have to JOIN the association of Realtors to REALLY practice real estate and make a decent living. The State Realty Boards enable, side with, conspire with and do as NAR tells them to do, in MY OPINION.

the Big bad Board DOES Not look into Lying, Cheating, or Fraud. They do Not Checking MLS Data for accuracy who cares.. they leave that up to the Realtors.

The "Board" does nothing to advocate for REAL consumer protection in Real Estate.

When the Consumer Obviously, and Deliberately has been cheated and fraud and they come to the board for help, there really is NOT alot they can do to enforce the LAWS in the State of Montana. A Realtor lies to you and the Association of Realtor and the Board of Realty Regs is of no help .. you have to Get an Attorney and FIGHT.

But when the Realtors whine that a Now Non Realtor member is Telling on them and yapping and yammering well here comes the state real estate licensing board to see what they can do to help the association of Realtors out. Can’t really say that I did not expect this. The Thing is I truly wish that the "Board" was out to protect, serve and help the real estate consumer - the public that pays their wages.. but Honestly I do not believe that they are.

The State Governing Body has nothing to do with the MLS data, yet the accuracy of this data is what the entire financing industry is based on. The mortgage market industry, the collapse, that was all based in a foundation of real estate loans based on real estate equity built on Real Estate Data that was NOT and is Not policed for Quality Control of any kind.

Why is your State Governing Body not made to REALLY police the Real Estate industry?

Well probably because most real estate agents HAVE to be Realtors in order to participate in the game and the National Association of Realtors is left to do as they please in “policing” their own industry and they fail miserably.

Oh well, this failure pays Big Time.

And you’re the One Who Pays for it.. Find out more at

NMAR wants to Play Dirty, an Audit to Me.. Alrighty then The Truth has barely been told here… Stay Tuned for lots more stories on the Dirty Deeds of NMAR. Got a Story of how a Kalispell Realtor, a Northwest Montana Realtor has treated you. Have you Been Lied to? Has Fraud been committed to you? Did the Realtor lie and you LOSE…. Lets hear it Crystal@CrystalCox.com Time to Name Names, and EXPOSE the Truth. The Realtors are hurting you and you Have to TAKE it.. Even if they break the law. You the Real Estate Consumer cannot afford to make them pay, make them accountable and in my opinion NAR and your state governing body is of no real help to the Real Estate Consumer.

You Folks Want to gnaw at my legs and yip at my heels. I will NOT back Down. The Real Estate Consumer Wants the TRUTH, they Deserve the Truth. Real Estate is Our LIFE, it is where we live, where we sleep and eat, where we love and raise our family, where we are sick, where we get well. Real Estate Transaction affect every single part of our life and the Real Estate Consumer Deserves Better then the National Association of Realtors is giving them. And NAR is forcing, enticing your governing bodies to get in there and assist the Realtor and forcing their way into your real estate transaction even though it causes more harm then good.


Coming Soon emails, marches to Washington, News letters, MAR attorney Lies, deliberate actions by NAR and MAR against the real estate consumer… and inside information on NMAR and the Dirty little Secrets of the Association of Realtors.

I have taken their abuse ENOUGH.

The Real Estate Consumer Deserves the Truth. And you nitpicking me, threatening me at every turn in the road is NOT right and is NOT going to STOP me from telling the Real Estate Consumer the TRUTH they Deserve. I am the Real Estate Industry Whistleblower and You Cannot Take My Experience, my Truth the way it happened to me. I saw what I saw and it is STILL happening today... there is no end in site to the harm Realtors do to the Real Estate Consumer and they seemingly have NO LIABILITY...

the Real Estate Consumer keeps coming back for more, they kind of have to. Yet NAR says that being a Realtor is not “Mandatory” BULL. Your State governing Body should, indeed, watch over the Association of Realtors at the State and Local Level but they do not, they are their for licensing purposes and to make sure you don’t break the laws in place by the state.

Oh wait that’s not true either, because when you tell them what a real estate broker - a Realtor has done to you as a Real Estate Consumer they tell you there is nothing they can do and they suggest a Real Estate Attorney. Then you spend all your money and then some fighting for what the Realtor told you, promised you that you were buying in the first place.


There is a serious gap in the State Regulating boards and what their responsibility is to the Real Estate Consumer. They DO not make Realtors follow the laws, they do not enforce the laws, but yet….

In My opinion the State Governing Body does the dirty work for NAR, they do what NAR wants because the do not have the Money or the Support to STOP THEM.
They say a Real Estate Agent is Not a Realtor, unless they are a NAR member. Yet the State Board Does the Dirty for the National Association of Realtors. If they do not than NAR is not happy and they will STOMP their feet and make some NOISE…

As a Real Estate Broker Owner which I still am to date, I do NOT feel that any governing body, licensing board, state law maker, judge, Association of Realtors, politician or any one else is out to or can really protect the Real Estate Consumer in the Current System of the Real Estate Industry. As it is REALTOR, the National Association of Realtors reigns king, and they are NOT fair, they are NOT just and they are NOT listening... not to the Broker Owners and not to The Real Estate Consumers....

oh maybe a Broker Owner in the Coveted Conglomerate of Apollo Management, Realogy or Cendant whatever name they go by now.. known to you as ERA, Coldwell Banker, Century 21 and Sothebys...

www.RealEstateIndustryWhistleblower.com

My Name is Crystal L. Cox, I am a Real Estate Broker Owner. I can NOTHING from telling the Real Estate Consumer the Truth and stand to lose everything... I am the Real Estate Industry Whistleblower and this stufff REALLY did happen to me and to my real estate consumers... the Truth is the Truth no matter what the REALTORS try and do or say to SHUT me up... The Real Estate Consumer NOW has an Advocate whether they know they need it or not and I am NOT going AWAY.. so keep on coming, keep on tugging, keep on lying and whining to the board, to the association at all levels and to NAR... the TRUTH is the Truth...

YOU Deserve Better then the REALTORS are Giving YOU...

the Buyers Locating Form - the Locking in a Buyer Scam

Realtors are Commission Motivated

A non-Realtor member can protect you more than a Realtor can. Ethics are not law and Realtors are NOT held accountable. Buyers Bonuses are not good for the real estate consumer.

Countrywide Hurricane Victims

How Can Mortgage Companies Get away with this? I have seen this happen elsewhere. Accountability and Transparency is no where in site.

Would you Take me More Serious if I was wearing a suit - a Post about Paul Henderson, Real A Tor

Realtors think I a write this stuff because I suck at Real Estate, I mean in their minds what possibly could be the motive if not that I just can’t make it as a Realtor? Well folks, it is that I have a conscious, I have studied a whole lot of legal cases, seen Associations of Realtors stand for the Realtor over the consumer even in the face of, without a doubt proof. I have read real estate law books though Paul Henderson alludes to the fact that I “ain’t got no learnin”. I speak the truth from my experience as a Realtor, as a Real Estate Broker Owner. Not a Franchise puppet but an owner of my own company, believe me I know what I am talking about and if I don’t dress in a way you recogonize as truth then so be. Is 1 and 1 only equal to 2 if I dress in a suit or use “proper grammar”?

Paul Henderson slams the FSBO in this little ditty as well, lets take a closer look at Paul Henderson’s comments which this woman, as Paul Henderson -, Realtor calls me, this woman who ain’t got no learnin’ is going to immortalize on the internet and market better then Paul Henderson will market any of your real estate listings.

Paul Henderson’ slam is in Blue and My Comments are in Black. We shall soon move down the list to all Realtors who think they get what I am doing and have chimed in here with Paul Henderson . And I will Comment on what nice words they have to say about me in a later post.

Here is the Rant

And I'm the Slime Ball!
I was talking to a FSBO, (for sale by owner) (gee I think we know what a FSBO is but thanks for explaining to those of us who “ain’t got no learning.) who was wondering why Realtors were such Slime balls. It was nice that they dropped by my listing to ask. I asked why am I a slime ball, I had never even talked to this woman before. She said that her friend had showed her this YouTube video and then she had gone to this broker's website.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4BoLOiTZ_o

I told this woman that if she believed everything that appears on the internet, why is your house still for sale?

So he slammed the FSBO because their house is still on the market.

It's because Realtors are restricting the market and making their houses so much more appealing to the public (I call it advertising.)

Maybe the FSBO did not word it correctly or you with all your “learning” did not write the conversation correctly, SHE is absolutely right about Realtors restricting the market. Realtors are not needed but force themselves into the sale for a living. Keeping Banks out of Real Estate, such as the Topic of the Video, is one of those ways.

Slamming this FSBO woman is a sure sign of Paul Henderson’s character and a sign of how Paul Henderson of Lacey Washington would treat this woman if she did list with him.

And what Paul Henderson calls “advertising” is of no use to you. If Paul’s FSBO is reading this email me at Crystal@CrystalCox.com and I will give you FREE marketing and marketing tips, you will be on top of the Super Paul Henderson’s Washington real estate market soon.

This woman claimed that Realtors had stolen all her for sale signs she had posted on the street corners directing people to her house. How did she know it was a Realtor that had stolen her signs?

Hey FSBO, I believe it, I have seen it happen, take a Video of the Realtor doing this, and email it to me at Crystal@CrystalCox.com , I guarantee your story immediate and strong internet presence for the name and the company that is doing this to you, prove it and I will Expose it.

She said because who else would do it? I pointed out, if her house was located within the city limits of certain towns that sign ordinances were in place and the public works department collected signs that were out of compliance.

This Does Happen, however there is a nicer way to talk to people Mr. Paul Henderson.

I don't want to drive more traffic to this woman on YouTube or her website but if you want to see some true propaganda look her up.


Yes “true propaganda” I am telling the truth, I charged this to keep Realtors out, I have since decided to go ahead and let the Realtors attack me, it happens with or without my real estate industry whistleblower blog so …

If you want to subscribe, for $75 per year, you can learn all sorts of information about our industry. I also included her blog, for all the dirt. (I've seen shorter infomercials!)

Again the Blog is Free, and So is Real Estate Marketing for the FSBO, You Do NOT need a Realtor, NAR member to sell your real estate. There is Not One Reason to use a Realtor to market your home. Selling without a Realtor has stronger marketing power online, less drama, less humiliaton, more protection and more money.

then Paul Henderson points the Realtors to my Sites for the Attack.

Blog
http://www.realestateindustrywhistleblower.com/

I hated to break off this debate but I was waiting for my clients and really didn't want this person dragging my clients off with her tales of fantasy.

No, we can’t have you clients knowing the truth, that is bad for business.

I did ask her, if I brought her a qualified buyer, what she was offering in the way of commission. She replied "Screw You!"

This was bold and twisted of you, slam her (the FSBO) then want her to pay you to sell her real estate. Low Down, Disgraceful, UnEthical, and immorral at best.

I declined!

Is this a Sexual Connotation Paul Henderson ?. You Paul Henderson are Slime, as your FSBO attacker called you, putting sex into the mix at the end of this rant really wraps up what Paul Henderson is all about.

(I am not affiliated with the before mentioned websites or wish to be in anyway)

Well Paul Henderson now that you have Called Me Out, you are affiliated with me forever.

Authored by Paul S. Henderson, Realtor, RE/MAX Professionals, Lacey, WA.

This Woman…


Paul Henderson also says this about me “...Aint she got no learning. I believe she spoke of having only one week of education total, a kindergarten drop out…’

It takes one week to be a Real Estate Agent, at this point the Real Estate Consumer Believes that the Real Estate Agent knows more then they actually do. Real Estate School teaches us how to take the real estate test. Some Real Estate Agents take longer courses and some get those fancy titles such as GRI ( which is worthless.. More on that later).
r
But for the most part, one week of real estate school is all it takes. The educated public surely did not think that me saying “one week” of school meant kindergarten. I mean is Paul Henderson suggesting that we can count Grade School and High School as part of our Real Estate Education? I guess so, I mean you only have to be a High School Graduate or have taken your GED to qualify for that “one week” it takes to be a Real Estate Agent, Realtor.

So Paul Henderson has called me out in a battle of wits, though he is seemingly unarmed, and so we shall see what happens next…

I tell the truth, I know what I am talking about, I have seen it first hand, I can prove it and Paul Henderson, Realtor of the Lacey Washington Real Estate Market is flat out lying and throwing slanderous demeaning remarks my way to somehow defend how he treated a FSBO that was asking him questions. Paul Henderson is not an honorable man, and Paul Henderson has started a Cyber War with the Real Estate Industry Whistleblower.

Watch out for Paul Henderson, Washington Realtor. He talks this way to a FSBO, he is arrogant, he slams my education level, slams me and it sound like your only worth of tolerance if you list with him, otherwise he will talk down to you. If you list with him, it will most likely be behind your back instead.

Paul Henderson wants you to NOT Believe me because I have Grammar Errors and I don’t dress like I know what I am talking about.

This should be a major red flag to ALL real estate consumers, a Suit Does not mean your more knowledgable or can provide more protection to the real estate consumer.

Whether I dress formal or casual the message is the same. Examine all this folks, you can see here what Paul Henderson thinks of himself, his fancy suits and apparently feels he knows more then me and can therefore slam me with this disgraceful remark “Aint she got no learning.” This is a Realtor, this is who you are letting into your homes, if he will talk this way to me and to the FSBO in this Post then he will treat you this way, if not in front of you then behind your back.

Find Out the Truth For Yourself Folks
Knowledge is Power.

www.RealEstateIndustryWhistleblower.com

The Only Reason the Realtors know about this site is because a FSBO told them, Realtors are CLUELESS about Internet Marketing and Search.

Are you Still Paying 8% for your Realtor to list your Land? Realtors are Scaming you, Realtors Lie.

This is a VERY big scam. There is less liability and less work to do when listing land, and yet the Realtors convince the Seller that land is worth more commission to the Realtor. I fought this my first year in real estate, I offered 5% but my fellow Realtors convinced my Sellers and potential Sellers that I was not offering the same service or as good for those rates, when in fact I was offering more then “the same service”. And one of the Realtors went door to door telling folks how me offer "cheaper rates" was because I was not as good or offering less of a service. Yes Unethical and in the Realtor Ethics and Standards of Practice, but these games and attempts at boycotting Realtors who give you a break, as a real estate consumer, these things happened ALL the time and they still do.

Don’t let Realtors convince you that land is worth a higher commission, this is a scam.

Your Real Estate Transaction

a Real Estate Transaction involves More then One Contract. For Example, the Buy - Sell Agreement, the Listing Contract, the Buyers Contract,

If you are a Party to the Contract, it is said that YOU have a Right to make changes to the contract.. initial the changes and have all parties initial them as well.

I Believe that ALL contracts between ALL parties and ALL related Documents SHOULD have to be turned over to the title company at the time of closing, to have a 3rd party to the sale keep records of EVERYTHING.. including Home Inspections and Contracts between all parties, believe me not seeing the listing contract in full by the Buyer brings up all kinds of issues. And when you Sue, the documents will change and/or disappear and the real estate attorney really is cluelesss as to what should be in the contract. And they REALLY do trust that the Realtor turns over all related documents during "discovery" in a lawsuit and it is just not true.

Many Title Companies Will Protect the Realtor over the Consumer, however it is one more step to quality control over unscrupulous agents.

Title Companies are NOT to be trusted in full, but it is a way of better protecting the consumer by somebody other than the office that in the future becomes the accused, having the only set of "evidence" and even if the Realtor office has the copy of a previous home inspection, for example that they failed to disclose to you.. they don't have to have this copy so they just say that they Do Not...

Realtors Sucks - Blogs


realtors suck

Okay. So our house is being shown "By Appointment" since I am at home with an 8-month old baby. Anyone with children will know how difficult it is to keep a house clean for more than about 10 minutes while the baby is awake. Our listing notes that buying agents must call me to arrange an appointment since I am at home with a baby.Soooooo....this is how my morning started off:

Two realtors made appointments to bring their clients to the house. One at around 10:30am and one between 11-11:30am.I get a phone call at 10:30am from Evelyn Wms of Long and Foster, who tells me her clients can't make it after all. Hmmmm... and she waits until the exact moment she was supposed to be showing up at my house to call to tell me this? Okay. Fine. Whatever. I let her know there's going to be an open house on Saturday and to tell her clients they can come to that if they're still interested.I think "At least there's someone coming between 11-11:30"

Keep in mind by this point I: Had been awake since 6am thanks to baby waking up early
Had about 20 minutes to myself during which I managed to: take a shower, get dressed, rinse the tub, vacuum the bathroom floor, clean the cat litter box, sweep the area around the litter box and wash all the dirty formula bottles and dishes from last night's dinner
Ate 3 smushed granola bars and a handful of peanuts to keep me from falling over
Cleaned the diaper genie only to have Frida take another pooh and had to specially bag the dirty diaper and run it out to the garbage can at the curb in order to prevent any lingering pooh smells from vexing the potential house-buyers Fed Frida about 3 times, having to wipe down the high chair, kitchen table, and floor after each time Shut the cats in the guest room at 10:15am in prep for the ensuing showings god knows what else because my memory is shutting down now
Sooooo...

Matthew Salter of Remax 100 was supposed to be showing his client the house between 11-11:30. Frida was supposed to be going down for a nap at this point. She is starting to freak out. 11am - playing with her; 11:15am - giving her a bottle to try to quiet her "just until the realtor shows up so we can go out in the stroller and she'll nap then"; 11:30 - rocking her in my arms figuring "when they show up, I can just transfer sleepy baby from my arms to the stroller"; 11:40 - go online and google "Matthew Salter Remax 100" to get his phone #; 11:42 - call Salter's office & get his cell # from the receptionist; 11:43 - call Salter's cell phone & he answers it, at which point I introduce myself and let him know I'm still waiting for him & his clients and does he have an idea what time they'll be coming?

So, get this part -- Salter goes "Um, oh, my client won't be able to see the house after all today because of his work." To which I reply "Were you planning on calling me to let me know?" (read: when were you going to tell me this, asshole?) And he responds "Um, yeah, I was going to call you."

Yeah, right. If you're looking to buy or sell a house. Forget about that guy and find an agent who believes in at least common courtesy.

I talked to my realtor and asked her if realtors would take appointments more seriously if they were actually supposed to be meeting the listing agent. She laughed and said realtors are even ruder to other realtors!

If you are thinking of becoming a realtor, you might want to reconsider a profession where people take appointments seriously...

CALLING BS ON REALTORS: A QUANTITATIVE STUDY:And now I have come across another reason to forego an agent and go FSBO (For Sale By Owner). In their study, “The Value of Information in Real Estate Transactions,” Steven D. Levitt (University of Chicago and American Bar Foundation, author of the bestselling book Freakonomics) and Chad Syverson (University of Chicago and NBER), looked into the behavior of real estate agents to try to figure out whether they were doing the best jobs they could for the clients who were paying them.

Their conclusion:"Our favored interpretation of the data is that the combination of real estate agents’ information advantage and the form of the commission received combine to create distortions from first best. Homeowners are induced by their agents to sell too quickly and at a price that is too low."

The study is 34 pages long, but in a nut shell, they compared what happened when an agent sold a home for a client against what happened when an agent sold his own home. They found that:"agents sell their own homes for 3.7 percent (roughly $7,600) more than they sell their client’s homes, and leave their (own) houses on the market roughly 10 days (10 percent) longer."So if we do a little math, hiring an agent will cost you a 6% fee, and another 3.7% because the agent cares more about moving your house quickly than about squeezing the most out of the deal for you.

That is a hair less than 10%. On a $500,000 home that means your agent costs you almost $50,000, and on a $1,000,000 home, that is $100,000. If you don’t have much equity in your home, that $50,000 might come in handy for something else.
