Agent demands commission on rejected offer and on anything buyer buys within the year
I had a prospective client I'll simply call "Client" whom I met in December 2007 and to whom I've shown properties. Until one day, he walked into an open house on a waterfront property that he liked.
OPEN HOUSE AGENT MADE OUTRAGEOUS CLAIM
The agent --- whom I'll refer to as Agent X --- holding the open house told him only HE can write the offer for my client, and that the chances of getting the offer approved would be greater if HE wrote the offer for him. It was a short sale, and this is the only house that Client saw with Agent X.
Client was almost embarrassed to tell me about it...and kept saying sorry that he went with the other guy. But he and his wife really wanted the house, and Agent X convinced him to write the offer.
As disappointed as I was, there was nothing I could do at that point. So I backed away.
Yes, I know....I should have had him sign a Buyer Broker Agreement.
But ....but.... :(
