Jerry Pemberton

Nice guy but is more interested in his commission than his customer. About a week before closing he asked that I sign a form indicating that as the buyer, I would be responsible for County Street assessments. He told me not worry about it as the County had not placed a Street Assessment in years. One week after closing I received an invoice from the County for almost $1000 for road improvements that occurred 1 1/2 years prior to my purchase of the property. This assessment should have been paid by the seller well before closing. I would have renegotiated the closing costs had I been properly informed. I feel that Jerry misinformed me about this assessment so that the closing would not be delayed. I found out later that he received a bonus for closing quickly.
