My complaint is that I signed a contract with Help U Sell Realty on May 16, 2007 thinking that they would do an efficient job of advertising on my home for sale. I recently submitted an unconditional withdrawal in December 2007 from Help U Sell after realizing that I had dropped my house price $40, 000.00 over a period of time and they never showed the price difference listed on the MLS website. Wasting my time and money. My home could have possibly been sold by now, unfortunately due to incompetent Real Estate Companies.

I'm sorry but I am a former seller who used Sandy Ditto with Help u Sell to sell my home in less than 45 days and the comments posted above by "successful" are simply not true. I was a 38 yr old divorced mom of 3 and could no longer afford my home. Sandy came out the same day I called her and explained how help u sell worked. She was very compassionate to my situation. She never ignored my calls and rarely missed one. I walked a way with a good profit after only being in the home for less than 3 yrs. I referred Mrs. Ditto to my then ex husband and she sold his home in less than 60 days for a nice profit as well. He then used her to purchase a home for his son that the sellers tried to back out of after both parties had signed all contracts because someone else had offered them more money. They vandalized the home and property but guess what? Thanks to her husband being a lawyer Mrs. Ditto was very knowledgable of the law and my (now again) husband still owns the property for little of nothing. I'm sure "successful" has moved on & will never read this- but for future sellers/buyers I can say from repeated business with Sandy Ditto and help u sell she is a professional and will represent you as both buyer or seller! The only reason I'm on this website is to find Sandy's contact info to list another home with her so we can build on the nice 5 acre tract of land she helped us keep after the sellers went Ape S___!

Golly, this is Sandy Ditto and I am shocked to read the above comment. I am pretty sure I know who wrote this. This lady is emotionally disturbed, as evidenced by her long hateful comments. there is always two sides to every story. Most people who know me know my husband and son are lawyers. It is easy to acuse me of using them but I absolutely do not but it sure makes for good print when an emotionally disturbed person wants to rant. I have sold real estate for over 38 years, if I was as bad as this person makes me out to be I would simply not still be in business.

OMG! Same thing happened to us. Same realtor in OKC aswell. Sandy Ditto deserves the IDIOT of the year award! I am going to say a few comments about her and her lack of professionalism because it should not go without being said. I will not spend too much time writing this because she is not worth it! She is a waste of fresh air in every sense! I guess she feels she can get away with threating and screaming lawsuit because her husband and son are lawyers...WOW, what a way to get through life...it really shows how UNHAPPY she is...maybe her husband does not give her enough attention or she is pissed at what she looks like in the mirror! If i had those bags under my eyes, I would be pissed too! Her total MO is to be nice enough to get a contract signed with potential victim and then she turns on you like a rabid dog! If you ask her questions or advice on your home (keep in mind, you hired her to represent you in the sale of your home) she gets pissed and immediately starts with the threats to SUE you for lost commissions! I kid you not, she is a real piece of work...it is the most ridiculous display from a human being or better yet a real estate agent! Just to list a few problems you will have with her: 1)She never answers her phone nor return your calls to her. 2)If she does show your home, she will loose the potential buyer with her rude, unprofessional behavior. 3)You just have to keep calling her and hope she will feel like answering the phone that day (you would hope it stops there but NO) then you have to worry about which Sandy will answer the phone...the nice Sandy or the UNPROFESSIONAL, DEFENSIVE, LAWSUIT SCREAMING IDIOT! She definetely will leave a bad taste in your mouth and make you very liery to hire a real estate agent again! VERY SAD, ALL YOU CAN DO WITH PEOPLE LIKE THIS IS PRAY FOR THEM and feel sorry that they have no more self esteem for that. SANDY, YOU REALLY ARE IN THE WRONG LINE OF WORK AND YOU ARE NOT GOOD AT WORKING WITH PEOPLE (SELLERS OR BUYERS).

Same thing just happened to us. With the same realtor in OKC. Ms Ditto, highly unprofessional attitude, rude, agressive toward us (buyers). We decided to walk away from the home purchase instead of dealing with her as a selling agent. To bad for the owners, they seemed nice. We were going to offer full price but she just ruined that offer with her attitude about her commission. All I can say is good luck to the sellers with her as their agent.
I will stress the above, Do Not Use this company.

Yes Help U sell sucks. I was sold on the fact that do the same thing as any other agent, but they dont. All they do is list it in the websites and hope for someone to call. They do not have your best interest in mind. If you want to cancel the listing they will say no because its all about the commission not whats best for the client. I am in Oklahoma City and Sandy Ditto is the worst. DO NOT USE HELP U SELL.

I see why you are pissed, but I think that your issue was due to an imcompetent agent, you cannot sterotype all agents that work for a specific company due to one bad apple. It is unfortunate that you had a bad experience- unfortnately in Las Vegas there are alot of inexperienced agents due to everyone rushing to get liscensed 3 years ago to take advantage of the boom, but failed to take the time to actually learn the business. I hope everything worked out for you and that you will consider that you can find good agents with ANY company, you just have to interview them to determine their skill, drive, and dedication levels.

I had the same problem with a Help u sell in California. This agent, over priced my property from the start and never brought a buyer. Three months into the deal i asked if i could cancel the listing and he flat out said no. I gave hime another month then i said screw it and had my real estate agent sister, fill out a notice to cancel listing agreement. Now this looser is attempting to send me to small claims court for $6,900 for doing nothing. He never brought one buyer. I think he purposedly listed the property at the higher price so that i wouldn't sell so that he can collect the money. Please never use Brian Adams from the Help U Sell company. Oh you know what, he went out of business for misleading customers, but i think he's working for another company. He's still in the Canoga Park, Woodland Hills,
West Hills area.
