I feel like I got ripped off by a contractor that was given to me by a realtor [View all]

who wants to sell my house. I also want to move but with Covid I have been severely limited in my movements and cannot even go to where I think I want to move ....... STILL. So the realtor told me to get this guy because "He cheap"

So I have have a small 3 bedroom. They removed all the popcorn ceilings and put down laminate floor, (cheep compared to the floor I have in the kitchen) in the living room and one bedroom. They also painted the ceilings and the walls on 1/2 the house, put in a new vanity in the bathroom and 2 faucets.

He asked me a few times after if I was ready to put it on the market. I can't. But I get the feeling that he was working with her somehow and was going to take a bit off of the sale of my house.

So now that it has been about 4 months he wants $9,171 for the work. I am still shocked that it cost this much. He originally spoke in terms of a few (I assume like 3) thousand.

I've paid him all but $2,700 and he is now texting me about that money.

Did I get ripped off???????
