Naughty Agent – Stories of Realtors Doing Bad Things Part IV

Send us a text

Des and Jennifer discuss recent disciplinary decisions by the Real Estate Council of Ontario (RECO) against real estate agents. 

Three cases: 

• one where an agent contacted sellers whose houses were on the market and tried to convince them to terminate their current contracts and list with her
• another where an agent representing a buyer listed a property for lease before the buyer owned the property
• and a third where an agent and her husband bought a property privately, assigned the agreement to a numbered company without notifying the sellers, and failed to disclose that she was a registered real estate agent
