B.C. realtor fined $258,000 for selling home twice
The case of a Surrey, B.C. real estate agent offers lessons for sellers who think they can get out of a deal, should a better offer arise.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
A B.C. real estate agent was fined $258,000 when he unilaterally cancelled a contract to sell a home and resold it to a second buyer for a higher amount.
Hwang Soo Lee of Surrey, B.C., ended up having to compensate his first buyer for behaviour described by a judge as "high-handed and outrageous." The lesson is that sellers who think they can change their mind and get out of a deal, should a better offer arise, must beware of the consequences.
Here's what happened:
In mid-January 2009, Lee signed a deal to sell his home in Surrey for $740,000. He needed to sell the house in a hurry, so the price was $26,000 less than he owed on the mortgage and the commission payable to the buyer's agent.
But before that deal closed, Lee sold the home to a second buyer for $779,000, which would have covered all his costs. In an effort to get out of the first deal, he refused to let the buyers, Kundan and Puja Khullar into the home to do a home inspection. Then he tried to change the terms of the deal by increasing the price, without any right to do so.
Lee figured out a way to close the deal with the second buyers without obtaining a release from the Khullars. The Khullars were not able to get something registered on title in time to stop the second deal from happening. Prices had started to escalate in the area and after losing their opportunity to buy Lee's home, the Khullars bought a smaller home, two doors away, for $917,000.
The Khullars sued Lee for $258,000, which they calculated as the difference in price between the smaller home they purchased and the one Lee sold them and then cancelled. The Khullars had an appraisal that stated that on the date they signed with Lee for $740,000, the home they eventually bought was worth $81,000 less than what they offered Lee.
In his December 2011 ruling, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Randall S.K. Wong awarded the $258,000 in damages to the Khullars. The judge said: "Mr. Lee's duplicitous behaviour was high-handed and outrageous. Since he was also negotiating in his role as a realtor in the sale of his own property, his actions were not only surprising and unprofessional, it was simply dishonest."
Among the lessons: Buyers can sue to force you to sell to them, or they can sue you for the difference if they have to find another similar home. If the real estate market is changing, this may cost you even more.
If sellers want to accept a second offer, it must be conditional on the first agreement being properly cancelled. You need to get legal advice to make sure you both word the condition correctly in the second offer and to make sure the first deal is properly terminated before proceeding with the second deal.
The seller does not have an obligation to tell their first buyer about the second buyer. Sellers cannot use bad faith in trying to cancel the first deal. However, for example, let's say the first buyer does a home inspection and then tells the seller that unless they fix something or give a credit, they will not go ahead with the deal. Now the seller, knowing he has another buyer waiting, can just say no. That is not acting in bad faith.
The other lesson of this case is to be very careful when you act for yourself in any real estate deal. Always get expert advice before you make any signed commitment. Remember, a person who acts for himself usually has a fool for a client.

Nathan Cohen loath to fill vacant single seat
Relevant offers
Other Sports
Olympic double sculls gold medallist Nathan Cohen may be the obvious choice to replace Mahe Drysdale in the single scull but the Southlander says he is keen to remain part of a team.
Cohen was the fastest in the heats of the men's premier single sculls at the national championships on Lake Ruataniwha at Twizel on Tuesday but said he wanted his future to be in a quad.
"I've stated I'd like to be part of a quad because it keeps things fresh and it's a new challenge."
Cohen supported Michael Arms or Robbie Manson filling Drysdale's spot. Ironically, both men were part of the New Zealand quad in London.
Drysdale is taking a six-month hiatus from rowing, leaving an opportunity for a new sculler to impress at three World Cup regattas before his return in August.
Cohen said that after his first long holiday in 10 years he was not in the best shape, but he was pleased to get back into a rhythm after the euphoria of his gold medal with Joseph Sullivan in London.
"I've only been back in serious training for the last four weeks so timing-wise the nationals may not be perfect but it's good to spend a week in Twizel and get on the water and give back to the public who have been so good to us."
He said despite coach Dick Tonks' new focus being on the women's crews, the training routines would remain for the men and it was up to each individual to ensure they maintained the standards of the past.
"He's set the standard in terms of training and preparation and mental grit, so we have to maintain his standards. He'll still be around Lake Karapiro which is good news for everyone."
The finals at Lake Ruataniwha are from today to Saturday.

There is no word in the English or Chinese dictionary that can describe the color of the water in Jiuzhaigou. Hence, it has been called 'jiuzhai' blue.

Summer is a good time to travel to Jiuzhaigou. Temperature is between 20-30C during day time and at night, it's around 15-20 basically.

Roger-Mark De Souza: Focus on Urban Dynamics, Water Scarcity in Latin America and the Caribbean›Friday Podcasts // July 31, 2015 // By Linnea Bennett
For the past four decades, urbanization in Latin American and Caribbean countries has been on the rise. Today it's one of the most urbanized regions of the world with 79 percent of the population living in towns and cities. By 2050, 9 out of 10 residents are expected to live in cities. This density and movement of people is critical to understanding the region's water and climate change issues, says ECSP's Roger Mark De Souza in this week's podcast.
As Glacial Floods Threaten Mountain Communities, a Global Exchange Is Fostering Adaptation›Guest Contributor // April 14, 2015 // By Alton Byers & Jorge Recharte
In 1941, glacial Lake Palcacocha in the Peruvian Andes burst its moraine dam of earth and stones, sending a torrent of water through the city of Huaraz and killing an estimated 5,000 people. Between 1941 and 1950, two more glacial lake outburst floods, or GLOFs, which can occur after enough water fills in behind a glacier's end moraine, killed another 5,000 people in the Cordillera Blanca. In response, the government set up one of the most effective glaciological units in the world with the goal of preventing future outburst floods. Using drain pipes, reinforced terminal moraine dams, sophisticated tunnels, and valve systems, they drained or contained 34 lakes in the region. As a result, thousands of lives were saved.

Everything You've Always Wanted to Know About the UN Climate Talks But Were Afraid to Ask›March 5, 2015 // By Wilson Center Staff
Climate change negotiations seem to crawl along interminably at the pace of the glaciers they are meant to protect, with little perceptible progress as meeting follows meeting and conference follows lackluster conference. But this year we are seeing remarkable momentum building toward a historic conference in Paris in the closing days of 2015, by the end of which we will either have a new international agreement on cutting greenhouse gas emissions, or we will have seen the last of truly global efforts to strike a deal on saving our planet.

New Investment Law in Peru Undermines Rights of Indigenous Women›August 22, 2014 // By Wilson Center Staff
A new law in Peru encouraging investment in the country's extractive industries has reignited debate on the lack of power indigenous women have in the mostly rural societies where they often live. The International Indigenous Women's Forum, which drew more than 60 native women from across the world to Peru last month, highlighted this important issue.
Book Review: 'Oil Sparks in the Amazon: Local Conflicts, Indigenous Populations, and Natural Resources'›August 18, 2014 // By Roger-Mark De Souza
Since the early 1990s, the rising price of crude oil and other key natural resources – and the resulting drive by governments and private companies to extract those resources – has led to sharp conflicts in Latin America. At the core of these disputes is the clash between national economic interest and the rights of indigenous people inhabiting the land where most natural resources are located.

White Sox reportedly planning waiver claim on Manny Ramirez
Aug 24, 2010, 1:10 PM EDT
Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com wrote this morning that "claiming Manny Ramirez off waivers would be nuts." And now he's reporting that the White Sox plan to place a waiver claim on Ramirez.
General manager Ken Williams and the White Sox were said to be interested in Ramirez prior to the July 31 trade deadline, so Chicago's apparent willingness to take what now amounts to little more than a $4 million flier on the 38-year-old slugger certainly isn't surprising. Or particularly crazy, despite what Rosenthal suggests.
Ramirez certainly isn't the dominant offensive force he once was and has also been limited to just 62 games because of injuries, but if reasonably healthy he's still a damn good bat. He's hit .312/.404/.508 overall this season, which is good for a .912 OPS that ranks seventh among all MLB outfielders with at least 200 plate appearances.
Beyond that, the White Sox's have a gaping hole at designated hitter caused by the misguided decision not to re-sign Jim Thome at manager Ozzie Guillen's urging this offseason. Thome has been amazing for the Twins with a .269/.393/.583 mark that tops the measly .237/.308/.401 cumulative production from the White Sox's designated hitters by 267 points of OPS.
Ramirez can't get back the production and games lost by choosing to replace Thome with Mark Kotsay, but his still-powerful right-handed bat would fit very well into the White Sox's lineup and by using him primarily at DH they could cross "defense" off the list of potential issues.
Of course, just because the White Sox are planning to place a waiver claim on Ramirez doesn't mean a team in front of them won't do the same, and even if Chicago ends up with the winning claim they'd still have to work out a deal for him unless the Dodgers are simply willing to give him away to save money.
As usual, Ken Williams has plenty of gamble in him.
- Old Gator - Aug 24, 2010 at 1:21 PM
Oh boy. I can't wait to see how Ozzie responds when next Manny starts being Manny. Can you imagine how Manny would handle it if Ozzie unloaded on him the way he did on Alex Rios last year? Hoo-hah! It'll be the best dugout faceoff since Reggie Jackson and Billy Martin!
- Omega - Aug 24, 2010 at 1:52 PM
Is it just me or are the White Sox all heck bent on self destructing themselves this season?
- Detroit Michael - Aug 24, 2010 at 2:18 PM
Adding a player with a 912 OPS is not a form of self destruction.
- YANKEES1996 - Aug 24, 2010 at 2:42 PM
That has got to be one of the most lethal combinations of personalities I can recall, Kenny Williams, Ozzie Guillen and Manny being Manny, that would be one helluva of show!
- beezo - Aug 24, 2010 at 6:46 PM
Damn, I wanted to see him pass through to the Red Sox… but is Manny really going to pass through the NL that easily?
- Pisano - Aug 25, 2010 at 12:08 AM
Those two idiots deserve each other , they both eat out of the same barn . As an American League fan , I just hate the thought of seeing Manny the Moron back in the AL .

A leading London bank is now closing private banking customer accounts of Americans who are living in the U.K., acting preemptively to prevent probes by the Obama administration.
The White House wants to crack down on alleged tax cheats, as disclosed in the president's budget proposal.
Private banking clients of Lloyd's Banking Group recently received memos telling them of an "important change in policy regarding clients who are resident, domiciled or linked to the United States by property or asset holdings."
The bank told the wealthy clients that the bank had "no choice" except to "cease acting as your investment manager," according to a report in The Daily Telegraph of London,
A bank that is part of the Lloyd's group, Bank of Scotland, sent the letter, according to The Telegraph, that said, "the USA has a mature regulatory environment, governed by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These regulations mean we are not licensed to manage portfolios for U.S. clients."
The bank is advising clients to find another investment banker. One client, quoted anonymously by the Telegraph, said that he is an American who has lived in the U.K. for 25 years, and "after all this time, I've suddenly been told I must take my money elsewhere and I don't understand why. Now I'm scared that other banks won't take me on either."
A report in the Los Angeles Times indicates that Obama's tax crackdowns are causing businesses to write and lobby their Congressmen, who are pleading that the plans may also harm American businesses which bank overseas.

Happy birthday, OneBeatleManiac! Or, OBM for short. If I was any good at photoshop, I would post a picture of Paul McCartney in his Sgt. Pepper uniform here. Then, I would replace his "OPD" patch with "OBM." That might look slightly cool. Very slightly, now that I think about it. Forget that. Happy birthday, anyway!

BungalowBob, that idea sounds neat! Just imagining it, counts for me as a present from you to me.
Ahhh Girl, what webcams? Am I missing some Beatles Bible forum tradition?
I think she's referring to Joe on the Abbey Road cam when he went there for his birthday.

Bryce Harper expects a record-setting bonus
May 3, 2010, 3:26 PM EDT
Jon Heyman of Sports Illustrated has a source telling him that Bryce Harper is going to seek to break Stephen Strasburg's record $15.67 million signing bonus when he's selected next
month, almost certainly by the Nats. Man, he gets all the scoops.
I'm a bit skeptical. MASN's Ben Goessling reported a couple of weeks ago that Scott Boras himself — who represents Harper — has said that he does not consider Harper to be in the same class as Strasburg. I suppose this could be negotiation ju-jitsu of some kind, but it's probably the truth. A near-finished pitching prospect is simply much closer to contributing to a major league team than is a 17 year-old slugger who plays a position — catcher — at which prospects tend to most slowly mature. In light of that I'd be a bit surprised if Harper gets more than Strasburg gets, pre-draft campaigning notwithstanding.
Still, there's very little doubt that Haper will get the record bonus for a position player. That mark is currently held by shortstop Tim Beckham, to whom the Rays gave $6.15 million in 2008.
- Ron - May 3, 2010 at 3:42 PM
Any word from Heyman that there are 7 other offers from unidentified sources?
- Mystery Team GM - May 3, 2010 at 4:57 PM
I have a LOT of interest in making a deal for this kid if the Nationals don't pony up 100 millon dollars.
- ThatsSoTaguchi - May 3, 2010 at 5:09 PM
Harper has a lot more negotiating power though. Dude doesn't have to sign like Strasburg did.
- lessick - May 3, 2010 at 6:02 PM
I hear there's a mystery team lurking in Japan.
- Josh Fisher - May 3, 2010 at 6:16 PM
While Harper's not a nearly-ready pitcher like Strasburg, hitters are much, much safer over a period of several years. That has to be factored in; no reasonable person out there doesn't think Strasburg's not playing on borrowed time to an extent.
- Charles Gates - May 3, 2010 at 10:19 PM
For better or worse, PR will force the Nats to sign Harper. Even if he goes bust, the signing is a signal to the fanbase that the ownership is at least trying to sign talent and put together a respectable team.

The place was nice and clean with a friendly host, hi offered umbreallas the day it was raining, could recommend anyone to live there
We had a great couple of days in Rio de Janeiro and the apartment was what we expected.
Jerry is very friendly and he gave us some good information about Rio.
The room was clean and nice, with a (small) view of the harbour and the location is great.
It's in the middle so it's close to both the center, Copacabana, Sugar loaf and Ipanema, by bus or taxi.
We highly recommend Jerry and his apartment.
Jerry was very friendly and welcoming, and the apartment was exactly as described and shown on the website. We felt very welcome and he was able to help us with all our questions and requests. The location is perfect, right in the middle between downtown Rio and the beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema, and the rooftop terrace sports a few of Pao de Acucar and Christ the Redeemer that is unforgettable.
Jerry was very nice and welcoming. He showed us around by going up to the roof and pointing out the surrounding places. The neighborhood is mostly residence with some small shops and eateries. The house was small and clean with views to the Botafogo beach. Walking distance to Metro station, supermarket, small eateries, and shopping malls.
The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Very good week in Botafogo in Jerry's flat. Good welcome, comfortable room... Thank you
A gente curtiu bastante o apartamento. É tudo lindo, muito bem localizado no bairro de Botafogo (pertinho do metro), com uma vista pela praia e o Pão de Açucar maravilhosa!!
Jerry e Rafael foram muito agradáveis, gente boa e super discretos!
Recomendo muito.

ITRI Launches 'Carbon Negative' Biofuel
Taiwan's Industrial Technology Research Institute says its ButyFix is the first biochemical technology for bio-butanol transportation-fuel production that has a negative carbon footprint and uses cellulose as its feedstock rather than corn.
ITRI says the total energy content in the lignin-rich biomass has the surplus to cover not only the energy for production, but also for the entire life cycle of the fuel. As a result, the greenhouse gas emission of ButyFix bio-butanol is slightly negative, the company says.
ButyFix is available now for licensing to biofuel- and chemical-processing organizations. ITRI says that it will receive a 2013 R&D 100 Award in November for this technology.
If the US were to replace corn ethanol with ButyFix butanol based on today's ethanol consumption of 13 billion gallons, it could further reduce its CO2 emissions by 90 million tons a year, ITRI says. Butanol produced using ButyFix is the only biofuel that can achieve a transportation-fuel price of $2 per gallon — well below the current price of gasoline and bio-ethanol — and it requires no government subsidies, ITRL says.
In other biofuels news, Maverick Biofuels has been awarded three US patents for producing a mixed-alcohol fuel from synthesis gas via a methanol intermediate. Maverick's Olefinity process involves converting feedstocks, such as landfill waste, biomass, natural gas and the like, into "syngas," a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen gases. Syngas is converted to an olefin intermediate, either directly, or by initially producing methanol and converting the methanol to olefins.
Olefins are the building blocks of a number of useful products, including mixed-alcohol fuels, diesel fuel and polymers, Maverick says.
Earlier this month, the US Department of Agriculture made available $181 million to develop commercial-scale biorefineries or retrofit existing facilities with appropriate technology to develop advanced biofuels.
Agriculture secretary Tom Vilsack said the financing is intended to expand the number of commercial biorefineries in the US that are producing advanced biofuels from non-food sources.

Report: Tom Thibodeau more interested in Nets job
Jun 2, 2010, 9:42 PM EDT
Tom Thibodeau has a bird in the hand — an offer from the New Orleans Hornets. They want an answer.
But the New Jersey Nets have expressed interest, and that has led to a dilemma for Thibodeau, according to Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated (via twitter).
Multiple sources have told SI that Thibodeau is more interested in New Jersey (and to a lesser extent, Chicago) than New Orleans.
The Nets, sources say, have a mutual interest in Thibodeau but have not identified him as their top candidate as of yet
Friends of Thibodeau are not surprised that Thibs is stretching this process out. He has often had difficulty making this type of decision
Is the bird in the hand worth a Russian billionaire in the bush?
- Randall - Jun 3, 2010 at 12:12 PM
Hmm…Take a job where the team is budget-conscious and possibly for sale…Take a job where the owner is absurdly rich and most likely willing to spend it all to win.
Decisions, decisions.
- Robert Dziedzic - Jun 3, 2010 at 4:18 PM
Thibodeau is the right choice for the Nets job period.
The fact that he is indicating that he wants it is even better.
A Connecticut guy coming home to excel.

Expert web designer with vast Joomla experience
Macedonia - Last active: 1 month ago - Tests: 4 - Portfolio: 3
I have vast experience in the field of web design, development and content editing. Having in mind that my first completed computer course was in the training center Alexandria back in 1994, my first website was online in 1997, and so through the years I've gathered enough experience to be able to fulfill any demands. I've worked with FrontPage, Dreamweaver, Corel Draw and Adobe Photoshop since their first versions, allowing me to grow up both as designer and web developer with the latest additions of the software. My experience with CMS dates back to 2003 when Mambo CMS was introduced as open-source platform. I have planned, designed and developed the website for the Antenna5 radio station which won the national website award in 2005, I've achieved the same success with the website of the Macedonian NGO "Shelter Center" in 2007, and in 2013 I've got the award for CrnoBelo.com website, as No.1 Macedonian website. During the years i've completed more than 100 websites, from small one-page websites to complex portals with modifications which are hard to describe, and even harder to be done. During the years I have worked as freelancer but also as employee both with small companies/teams and with large scale companies on worldwide projects. I am confident that these combined experiences make me an ideal freelancer for your projects. Having in mind all this, I strongly believe I possess the right combination of skills and experience you are looking for.
