So WHY do I owe you a referral fee?
Thanks for the blog Chris.  I have a few comments I'd like to make.  (Go figure.)
 
My initial knee jerk reaction is tell the daughter to take a long walk off a short pier.  Then I thought about it.  (Always a good idea with me!:))
Point 1.) maybe you mentioned it, but what was the value of the property you were getting to list?  I could be considerably more forgiving of one's greedy demand's if the property was financially well worth my time in the long run!  
Point 2.)  Could this negative situation been morphed into a positive situation?  ie: by working with the daughter you might stand a good chance of gaining additional trust & admiration from not only one side of the family (his), but now also the new wife's side of the family, as well as the daughter's side in a whole other state.  
Additionally, I now smell a potentially lucrative networking opportunity here with the Realtor daughter.  She's obviously out to make money, so maybe by making her money while helping her family will always be a deep seeded positive memory for the family.   Why would any of them even think of ever ... more
