Agent wins in a Buyers vs. Agent battle
A case in which real property buyers alleged that the $1.2 million purchase price they paid for a Carlsbad, California house in 2005 was too high, and blamed their agent, has been decided in favor of the agent:
Buyers vs. Agent, April 1, 2008;
Jury Says REALTOR Not to Blame for Purchase Price, April 11, 2008.
"With an enthusiastic and unanimous response, the jury found that [Mike] Little had executed a reasonable standard of care when he showed his clients, Vern and Marty Ummel, more than 80 homes in a house hunt that began in May 2005, ultimately leaving them to their decision to pay $1.2 million for their house two months later."
