Customer ReviewsforAJ Lamba Realty Group

Hello Everyone,

I hired AJ Lamba to sell my property. My house was listed at a low amount that was suggested by AJ Lamba because he felt that starting low would put us in a good spot. I had discussed a higher desired value I wanted to obtain with AJ Lamba, as any other seller would want to gain maximum value for their property. He agreed to work with me to achieve this, but did not fulfill this...

Please note that there is another property down our street that was listed the same day as mine and was sold more than what AJ Lamba listed my property for. A few days before that property was sold, AJ Lamba quickly came and removed his sign off of my property without informing me. This just goes to show how he did not want his reputation or name to be impacted and at the same time, he did not want to put the effort into working hard to help me reach our goal. This house was listed for a very high amount and we discussed with AJ Lamba how this house has inferior features compared to my house and is a clear indication that my property is listed lower than what it should be. But he disregarded this and instead mocked the other agent. As a professional and in general, one should respect another.

I kindly requested AJ Lamba several times to "freshen" up the listing by relisting at a higher price. However, he denied this and said he would only do so IF I pay their minimum commission even though NO offer was accepted!!!

Showings continued to happen, but AJ Lamba persisted in pushing me to accept the poor offer he favoured. Please note that this poor offer is placed by another real estate agent who is also the buyer himself. To my understanding, it seemed like AJ Lamba and the other agent had some sort of agreement with each other, which became evident in the way he stopped showing my house to highly interested buyers and stopped taking more offers. He kept pushing this one buyer and bringing up the fact that he has 15 years of experience. If someone has the experience, they do not need to reiterate that over and over, your work ethics, communication, and hard work will demonstrate your level of experience. As his client, I shared my feedback, opinion, and concerns with him because after all, it is my property, but his response was always about his experience and he mentioned that he has a high ego! He does not know how to effectively and professionally communicate with clients whatsoever.

Since I denied those offers he wanted me to accept, AJ Lamba decided that he no longer wants to work with me and would like to proceed with unstaging my property (please note that basic staging was a part of the service). He continued ************* threaten me to pay him commission when no offer had been accepted and my house had not been sold by stating the following repeatedly via email:

"WITHOUT PREJUDICE
Mr B. - I will be happy to TERMINATE the Listing immediately as long as you can pay Today the Minimum of $25,000 + HST towards our Minimum Listing fees. There is a very clear law in place that when you have received 6 Offers of which 2 were FULL PRICE, you owe us the Commissions. Please let me know when the draft is ready and I can send someone with the Termination documents."
**********************************************

Please note that nowhere does it state in our listing agreement that there is such law or that we must pay the commission when I have not accepted any offer whatsoever.

During this time, I got into a car accident. I am thankful to God that my family and I are safe and sound. However, my family and I were SHOCKED at AJ Lamba's response. You would not believe this, but the next day after the accident he brought up discussing that poor offer he favoured! No sympathy, no humanity, no maturity, what can I say...

At this point, I did not want to work with AJ Lamba anymore because of his ************** work ethic and manners. He stopped all showings for my house and did not remove my MLS listing online. I requested numerous times for termination documents, but he did not provide them, and recently, he suspended my MLS listing.

*************************************************************** *************************************************************** ************************************************** At the end of the day, it is your property and the agent you hire is there to provide a dedicated service to you, not the other way around. Agents particularly like AJ Lamba corrupt the industry and hurt respectful and reputable agents who prove their experience through actions, not simply saying "I have 15 years of experience" repeatedly.
