Complaint narrative:
During my short sale closing on XX/XX/XXXX the following was discovered : I informed SPS, the selling and buying agents and the closing attorney that the Georgia Tax liens and the IRS liens where not addressed in the closing documents. I believe that the closing attorney and real estate agents failed to perform and speak to the State of Georgia and IRS directly as I requested prior to the sell. The agents exploited administrative deficiency at the tax authority to show less tax due on liens and obligation. SPS owes the State of Georgia {$32000.00}. The agents and attorney revealed several short comings at closing SPS had not provided funds for home repairs ( XXXX ) the sale. SPS was deficient on paying taxes owed to the IRS and/or the State of Georgia ( I had contacted SPS of this deficiency prior to the sale ). The sale was delayed for hours due to the reduction of payments to the State of Georgia Department of Revenue. This was the result of the State retaining my XXXX tax refund of {$1800.00} instead of filing sufficient liens to notify SPS of all tax liabilities. The real estate agents had created a surplus payment for the seller for the buyer, which was used to pay the buyer interest on a Credit Union Mortgage. All was said to be approved by SPS. I am requesting that SPS pay the State of Georgia the complete tax bill forward prior to the closing immediate and reclaim the payment of the buyer interest and pay my home repairs.
