Review for member: Andy Berchtold
Never responded to my inquiry • Brigham City, UT • 2025
I recently worked with Andy Berchtold to oversee a purchase a home and was extremely disappointed by his forceful and blatantly disrespectful tactics in pushing me to use a specific lender who repeatedly set expectations for providing loan information that were never met, provided inaccurate loan information, and delayed access to information prohibiting other financial options. Andy, being made aware of the issues met with me, dressed me down for expecting promised information, being disappointed in service quality received, for not be amenable to accepting the only one loan option the lender never actually provided that “could close” in accordance with the REPC and for considering withdrawal from negotiations. Upon discovering significant discrepancies in the interest rate (increased 6.625, 7.007, 7.375) and closing rates which significantly impacted my monthly payments, Andy responded to those concerns by pressuring me to close quickly, assuring me that everything would be correct but instead changed terms of the loan and told me to “Suck it up.”Andy then chastised me for asking the buyer’s agent representing me if she could schedule an inspection. He stated he feels “inspections mean nothing in UT”, “no inspectors in UT are qualified or properly trained”, and my request was not merely unnecessary but demanding as his “realtor’s should not be asked to schedule inspections”, ignoring the intention of the request was due to my schedule flexibility, my realtor wanting to attend and me trying to make it work for their schedule.I notified Andy Berchtold of the ending of our business relationship on the last day to cancel contract as I still had no information, no contact from Andy post dress down and would be closing with he and his lender representing (or not) me and my best interest. My interaction with Andy Berchtold was unprofessional, predatory and unnecessarily disrespectful. A zero or negative starred option would be a more accurate rating for the experience reviewed.
