Asked by Flo Foo
Why are sellers so unethical even during our current recession? In recent months, I noticed with disgust the greed of sellers of several developments, including The Strata, Southbank and Inspira. Sellers and agents advertise a certain price, but once a buyer matches their request, sellers promptly go back on their offer and ask for a higher price. I experienced this thrice - two sellers asked for $200,000 more from the original price, while the third wanted $40,000 more. Whatever happened to a gentlemen's deal? I only hope these greedy, unethical sellers are left with overpriced units no one wants to buy - since our current recession hasn't hit bottom yet. After all, experts agree property prices are the last to fall in an economic downturn. Can this be brought up to CASE?
