Rashid Khan of 24136 Lori Ct Farmington Hills is one guy that I don't think much of.  You see in the last few weeks my wife if having some health problems.  She's a three time twenty year breast cancer survivor.  She's one of those people nobody can ever say anything bad about.  She's just a sweet person.

Unfortunately Rashid Khan of Farmington Hills is going to feel my wrath of this uncertainty.  See he is everything my wife is not.  My wife is a giver, Rashid is a taker in my opinion.  My wife is a person that tells the truth, Rashid well....

You see I have taken Rashid Khan out for several months looking at homes.  My wife even helped to find homes for him.  She took time out of her busy day to help him and his fiancee look at homes.

But last week I got this email from Rashid.

Hi Russ,
 
Hope everything is well. Maria and I are deciding to stop our house search since it is getting really close to our wedding date and we are getting hectic with arranging things and we also have to fly out of town for week or two which will give us even more less time to see homes and make a decsion. Also it is getting harder to find the home and deadline being so close we didn't want to rush into anything and just concentrate on wedding first and then home. We want to thank you for all of your efforts and time for showing us the homes and giving us the wisdom on what to look for in a home. When we are back in the market to look at homes we will sure to give you a call first. Again thank you for everything. I can go ahead and have my bank cancel the check that I gave you for Earnest money.
 
Thank You,

Rashid

So I sent this email back to him and shredded his check immediately for him.

 Rashid,
I understand completely.  I was amazed that you had the time to look with the wedding coming up.  To save you money I can either shred the check or mail it back to you.  I don't want to have you spend money on a cancellation fee.
 
May you and Maria have a great wedding and until we meet again may life treat you both well.
 
Russ 

Unfortunately today I found out Rashid signed a PA for another house and the email was a lie.  He wasted my time.  But I am more upset about him and Maria wasting my wife's time.  I asked my wife Marianne to help me help Rashid because I was busy.  His lie was an insult to my wife and the time she put in.  My belief is Rashid Khan ethic's are opposite of my wifes.  She only has so many good days to be wasting them on the likes of Rashid Khan.

It makes me mad that we put off going to dinner one night at a nice restaurant and got carry out instead because we were showing houses to Rashid Khan and Maria.   My wife is too nice to have wasted time on a person I believe to be a dirtbag like Rashid Khan.

Luckily I have a exclusive buyers agency contract signed by Rashid Khan. So I can go after my commission from the other agent or from him if I choose to.  Maybe I'll take my wife out to dinner with the money.  She deserves it. 

I hope your holidays are safe, healthy, and happy times with family and friends.

WOW Russ . . . you don't seem to be the type get angry, and I can feel it.  I'm glad you have an buyer's rep agreement, and wonder if the PA was for the house your were the procuring cause.  Good luck Russ, and I hope your wife will feel better soon!!  I'm so sorry to hear of this latest concern.

Based on many things that I have read lately, this conduct seems to be more and more prevalent.  People seem to believe that contracts are not binding anymore.  I hope that you are able to collect your commission.  I also hope the doctor is able to help your wife and she starts to feel better soon.

Hi Russ~ I am so sorry about your wife having pain.  I hope it isn't related to any cancer and is something simple and unrelated!  We all have had clients like that and none of it is deserved.  I know it hurts when it happens, but just move on to the next client that appreciates you!

Good luck on getting paid!  I will say a prayer for your wife tonight.  I hope the pain is something other than cancer.  God bless!

I can understand how you feel and especially admire the love you have for your wife and your protectionist feelings towards her.

However, I would remove the mans name.  That's just me and as always, take my 2 cents for what it's worth :-)

Yours isn't the first story I've read or heard that happening to. Sometimes I wonder where some of these people got their morals and ethics.

Russ, I'm so sorry to hear about how these people wasted your time and especially your wife's.  I can't believe they went to all the trouble to write such a nice, deceptive e-mail. They must have felt really guilty.

I hope your wife gets to feeling better soon and back on the road to full health.

Best wishes,

Robin

Russ - No doubt about it.  You have a right to be angry.  It seems that the most demanding clients are also often the least thoughtful.  I have had similar customer who demanded to see listings now - but when asked to signed a buyer's agency agreement actually said "I have an agent... I just didn't want to waste his time."  Really?  It's okay to waste other agents' time?
