Act of robbing agents.

What do you do when a broker goes rogue? Go balistic? Turn over to the authorities? There is a case of a broker with about 100 agents who gets agents commisions and do not pay them. The state real estate commission takes up to six months to institute an investigation and the perpetrator is long gone and set up another shop.

The issue I believe is one of ethics ad criminal character and intent. How would you address this situation?

Time to be your own Broker. Odds are you won't run out on yourself. Lawyer up and see where it goes.

Wale, there is no place for that in any business.  Hope they catch up with him, and put him away for a long time.

What comes around goes around. Speaking as someone who did a lot of work for YOU and never got paid. Led to really rough times for me personally, but I appreciate the lesson. So good to hear that Karma's got it's eye on you, dude! Stay robbing, Wale.
