Hi all, I'm currently trying to buy myself a house in Pune. I have my loan sanctioned (pre-aproved). I have been searching properties and visiting them since December 2014. Back in January 2015, I was about to freeze on one but there were broker and owner identity issues. I learnt a few valuable lessons during the first pursute before I backed out of that. Later I kept my search on and tried to find properties directly offered by individuals keeping brokers out of picture this time. I found one property at a very nice location. After talking with the owner and having interacted with him more than a couple of times, both of us (me and the flat owner) agreed on a price. The owner visited my office to verify my authenticity. I showed him my Loan Sanction letters as well. He had a call with the bank representative to get his queries resolved. Today morning he called me up to verify whether I have a blindness certificate and any proof of me being a valid customer of the bank. Before I went to office, I rushed to bank to obtain any sort of identity documents so that I could prove the owner my worth. Ultimately, when I felt I had almost had him convinced, he called me back in afternoon and said that he doesn't want to sell the property as I am blind (his advocate and his son from US suggested him so). This is something I find extremely weird and annoying. If he has another offer better than mine, that's fine. But to put forth my blindness as a reason not to sell the property is not right. I don't want to run behind such a thoughtless individual again. But before I part, I would like to make him realise that it is not a right thing to treat people this way. I am thinking of putting this story in media.
Any better ways that all of you can suggest for handling this scenario?
