Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Real Estate Attorney related : Listing Agent denied our $170,000 cash offer by saying he has multiple offer in to $200,000 cash, property was sold for $165,000 cash. Per Agent, the Seller refused to sell at $200,000 cash and choose lowest cash offer. I Would like to submit complaint to BRE. Do I have a reason to proceed after this explanation. Listing Agent was acting very aggressive and rude, before I finally received the explanation. If the Seller had particular buyer related to the Seller or Listing Office, why this property was listed on public MLS, where all potential buyers have equal rights to bid on the property. On what criteria the Seller was based to choose the buyer? On the first email Listing Agent stated that this deal was a mess, in the other email he said I don't deserve any explanation and in the last he said it was Seller's decision, because I notified him that I will report to BRE. On top of that I was told that I need to go back to my country and take English spelling classes, which I consider as National Discrimination and personal tread by Licensed RE Agent and Broker. Please let me how do I need to proceed. Thank you!

You do raise some issues that may be worth investigating. Was your offer without contingencies? If not was the lower offer without contingencies. When someone is selling a property and they have several offers there are a variety of factors that go into accepting an offer and not just the price. If you want to pursue this matter then you should retain an attorney. If you have any other questions feel free to call. 818 345-0123
