Re: commision earned
Sounds like yo earned your commission, but wiht no clsoing whose is to pay? You may have a cuse of action against the Buyer as a third party beneficiary of the contract. depending on the size of the comm. you probably could sue in small claims court. The Seller probably has a couse of action for specific performance. Larry Maun 713.266.2560
