re: How shady is this (real estate situation)?

Yeah man! Then you could beat the shite out of an old guy while unethically using a weak contract to make personal gains! That would be so tight!


Grow the frick up

He is playing with something that has an easily verifiable paper trail.

No way any attorney could navigate that criminally masterminded scheme. It's so convoluted and brilliant that Danny Ocean is envious of his ability to stay one step ahead of everyone else.

Yeah, it's a bunch of people that don't have much to worry about so they make up shite.

What? wait a second, in this scenario HE's the one trying to fight ME! I'd just be defending myself. Now, does he have a gripe? Of course.

But if he had it to do over again, he'd write his agreement to cover three months following several more scenarios.

Again, I don't argue that it's not at least somewhat unethical to do this.


But you people arguing that the guy could successfully sue me are wrong.

I don't have much to add other than, why just 3 months then? Why not a year? Or longer? If he technically abides by the contract signed, what's the problem. If the agent didn't want a tenant he supplied buying it without commision, shouldn't he have put a longer time frame?

I'm not knowledgable at all in this. Just curious.

Explain how this is a breach of contract. You are mocking, but I don't think you know wtf you are talking about.

It's not intended to be something nobody could figure out. I didn't present it as such. It's meant to be a technicality.

You are talking all this shite, but really you just don't understand.

I would normally say frick them, but for such a small amount of money it just isn't worth it in my mind. It will come back on you at some point

this is the legal question.

I already acknowledged it is at least somewhat unethical, and I didn't say I would do it. Even if I thought I would succeed, he could still sue and I'd have to spend a thousand or two just to deal with the bullshite, and so it would probably be smarter just to negotiate it.

But call names all you want.

For the OP, it basically comes down to does he like the tenant more than he hates the agent. I wouldn't jump through hoops to try to frick a guy over especially if I signed something.
