I just bought an commercial building in Sep. 08. there was another guy made a offer that higher than me .so the owenr took it .and that guy did everything .such as approved loan .title serch ...... since we really wanted that .so i talked to that agent .said if she could help me get that one .i would offer the same offer plus giving her additional 1 percent commission. so she kicked that guy out even that guy almost got to the end . so she made 7 percent on that deal . and i got what i want. just that poor guy lost thousands .oh my God.
