'That was the last we saw of Paul:' New homeowners thwart greedy real estate agent's plan by making him lose his $20,000 commission

It is an unfortunate truth of adulthood that you will likely deal with a shady real estate agent at some point in your life. These folks can be tricky to navigate. This is not to say that all real estate agents aren't trustworthy, but it is to say that if you go into a process with that mentality in mind, you might avoid getting swindled.

In this instance, we have a couple that wanted to downsize and found the perfect new home for them. They had a verbal agreement with the real estate agent that all documents would be signed on Monday and that the scheduled open house over the weekend would be canceled, since the agent already told the couple that the place would be theirs. Of course, when the couple just so happened to be driving through the area over the weekend, they noticed that the open house was very much still happening. Keep scrolling to see how they got even!
