A Toronto-area family who decided to walk away from a new house they agreed to buy says they are shocked to find out they still have to pay real estate commissions, even though the deal never went through

Marcello and Anita Mastroianni decided this past spring to sell their semi-detached home in Vaughan, Ont., north of Toronto to buy a larger house for their growing family. They say their agent told them their house would fetch at least $1 million once they listed it, so they made an offer to purchase another home nearby for $1.3 million.

But within weeks of signing the paperwork, the real estate market in the Greater Toronto Area began to cool sharply and both homes dropped in value.

After reassessing their finances over the summer, the Mastroiannis decided to walk away and not close the home purchase. They knew they would lose their deposit, but they didn’t realize they would be on the hook for so much more.

They received a notice from their real estate agent, Vince Tarasca, which stated he was going to pursue them for the commissions that he lost.

The Mastroiannis were told the buyer’s representation agreement they signed states that "…the buyer agrees to pay such a commission…even if a transaction…is not completed, if such non-completion is (due) to the buyer's default or neglect."

The commission their agent says they owe? $36,753.

In a statement to CTV News, Tarasca explained that many hours and days were devoted to the family and that agents involved did their jobs correctly, “with integrity and honesty.”

He said of the Mastroiannis: "...they refused to close, stringing sellers, agents, mortgage brokers and lawyers along the way… This is a case of a client taking advantage of the current situation of the housing market due to buyer's remorse."

The Mastroiannis say if they could have closed the deal, they would have.

"We didn't end up in the house, we lost a large deposit. So how do you go about thinking you are allowed your commission? The deal never went through," Anita Mastroianni said.

The matter will be settled in court. The agent says any money recovered will be donated to charity.

类似的事情好像在深圳也发生过。合约签完之后,押金都交了,然后买方想想觉得不想买了,卖方也正有此意不想卖了。买卖双方就高高兴兴的取消了买卖合同。这时候经纪就要佣金了。最后好像法院判的是经纪胜诉了。原因是经纪人的服务基本已经完成了(买卖合约已经签了,并且押金已经交了。经纪成功的帮卖家根据卖家的条件找到了一个买家并签约完毕,买家这边也是类似。)。这时候只要买家或卖家不反悔,完全可以锁住对方。至于买方和卖方之后自己主动反悔那是买卖双方自己的选择,经纪人的服务已经做到位了,所以赢得了服务费。

不过多伦多这个情况还不太一样,是买家单方违约并已赔偿卖方。不过买方经纪和买方还有合约。所以不知道会怎么样。

这句话弹性很大,于情于理上法庭经纪不会赢的,没看到客人的过错

经纪也不是什么好东西,他并没有告诉客人,如果不成交会有什么潜在费用要承担。

这不希奇,如果留心看和经纪的合同,有的合同书上写了:如果有人出价到list price,不管你卖不卖,经纪都要收取全费。真的,我还专门让经纪和他的公司签字,划掉了这一条款。

虽然经纪说这是标准文件,没人会这样做的。我不信,划掉才心安。

就算看了50套房,花了100个小时,要37k经济费,经纪时给370,够黑的
