My name is XXXX XXXX, and I put in an offer on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, VA XXXX on Tuesday, XXXX XXXX, 2015. I sent my documents to my realtor at XXXX who in return sent the offer to the sellers agent. The property is a short sale, it 's been on the market for approximately 410 days. I received a call back a few hours later on the same day stating the bank had declined my offer. It 's ironic how it took the bank 4+ months to decline an offer of {$190000.00}, however, it took the bank less than 4 hours to receive and decline my offer of {$200000.00}. Therefore, I want to verify that Bank of America reviewed my offer and took the correct steps of declining the offer. I did n't receive any type of written decline. Therefore, I 'm hoping the compliance department can perform their due diligence and provide me with some guidance on the process of declining in less than 4 hours. Most financial institutions leave paperwork on their desk for more than 4 hours before getting an opportunity to review it. My phone number is XXXX. Also, the offer was accepted by the seller.
