Business ProfileforJameson Sotheby's International Realty

My agent and I contacted a listing agent for a property listed for rent at *************************** and my agent did a showing. After the showing I still had a few others to see before I made a decision. I decided to move forward with the rent listed by ***************************. I ask before submitting any paper work was the owner going to remove the property if I decided rent since the property is listed for sale and for rent. I was told that it would be removed. I submitted paper work and paid the application fee. Contacted my agent for a follow up since I monitor my credit and nothing had hit my credit report. My agent stated the *************************** said the seller would make a decision at the end of the following week. A week later the listing agent tells my agent the seller rented the unit to someone else, yet the status has not changed for this unit and my credit nor was a background ever completed. I requested for my application fee to be refunded and the agent told my agent no. This is so unethical and so unprofessional. There is no telling how long they have been doing this since it has been on the market for over 45 days and how many ppl they have done this too. I'm very familiar with the neighborhood as I have lived in this very neighborhood for over 4 yrs and my kids attend the local school. I reached out to local office and no one answered the phone. I'll be contacting the BBB as well to file a complaint.I believe there was discrimination because I hold a CHA Voucher and because I am an African American Woman
