Naughty Agent VI

In this episode of Sold in the 6ix, Desmond Brown discusses two cases of unethical behaviour by real estate agents in Ontario.

The first case involves an agent who allowed a buyer to start renovations on a property before the sale was finalized, resulting in a $10,000 fine.

The second case involves an agent who repeatedly violated regulations, including altering contracts without the seller's knowledge, failing to secure proper signatures for price reductions, and relisting a property without a valid agreement. Despite numerous violations, the agent was only fined $30,000 and ordered to complete an ethics and business practices course. Brown emphasizes the importance of choosing a reputable agent and ensuring all agreements are in writing.
