Hi Bernice,

I would file formal complaints with the realty company that the realtor is a member of and I would file formal complaint against the moving company. They are supposed to give you a quote. You might even file a complaint with your state Attorney General's office!

Movers are a nightmare, too.  I have heard so many stories about movers taking people for more than they quoted and holding their belongings as hostage.  Do you have a local newspaper or TV station that helps people out in these situations?  Or is there a Better Business Bureau in your area?  They need some true and honest exposure about their business practices.  Good luck to you.

We just had to deal with it.  Sometimes you don't know some things about your home until you've lived in it.  We had a split level home and in the bedrooms, there was a small gap between the floor and the bottom of the walls so that air came through that space.  I don't know how one could build homes that way.  I should have done some research to find out if this was to code, but didn't.  Now it's someone else's issue.  We sold that house 18 years ago.
