    Today Tonight Story Regarding Ben Gough

    Sure, I'm happy for you to think that that's how it's working. :D Sounds like there's only one way to settle it, hey Dazz? We'd have our contractual opponents wishing they'd never met us. :cool: As for Norman and Evert - wash your mouth out! It's been a guilty pleasure of mine to have a...

    Today Tonight Story Regarding Ben Gough

    Sounds good, but actually I thought perhaps you'd come work for me! ROTFLMAO - an organisation with two "strong personalities" - we might end up in the tabloids. Bags me be in charge of equal opportunity policy. :D Thanks, on the downhill run now... kitchen cabinets starting to be installed...

    Today Tonight Story Regarding Ben Gough

    Today Tonight Story Regarding Ben Gough

    Queensland works different - and better ;) :p - than NSW in regards to property transactions. The contract is signed immediately after the offer is accepted, frequently with conditions (finance, B&P, etc). The vendor is immediately bound by this contract, so even if a better offer comes along...

    Today Tonight Story Regarding Ben Gough

    If Ben Gough was the listing agent, then he has a fiduciary duty to his clients, to try and get the best price for their property. If he was unable to find a buyer, then I have no problem with him buying it at a low price. But the timing is what worries me; he reportedly settled his purchase...
