Yes! I had a sweet revenge rather a monetary one. I was into reality sector working as an self employed , finding it really hard to compete with organised competition. No office. No backup team not even a visiting card to introduce myself to my prospective clients. Oh yeah I got into this profession after quitting my job from a realestate office where I was working as an office assistant . I had limited knowledge in the business which worked to the my clients’ advantage.

I had a distant client well educated and well versed in the realestate. Basically he was an investor who would buy land at low prices to dispose at appreciation. He came in contact with me through classifieds and asked me to find a prospective buyer to a property . Being in possession of photocopies related to the said property i started working on the property and it involved advertising in classifieds and websites apart from sharing the details with other brokers from the fraternity. One thing I need to mention here is that the property had documentation hassles and that made my job more tougher one. After two and half years of tilling I landed up with an confident buyer who was willing to buy the said property inspite of clear tittles lacking. Somehow the property changed hands and it was time that my client pay me the committed brokerage for the service rendered which was 2% of the deal.

We came out of the registeration office and we went to a restaurant to fill our tummies and I was eagerly awaiting my monetary reward for the hardwork I had put in. To my utter dismay I was paid peanuts and he backed off from his original comittment. I could sense the ground giving away where I was standing. The brokerage amount was huge for a person like me. Oh I was literally in tears. I placed my case and pleaded him not to back off from his agreed payment. Nope. He never budged. Finally I saw him off leaving to his home town in his car.

Now comes the twist. After two weeks he rang me inquiring about my well being. Following the niceties for formality sake he kept a proposal of reinvesting his recently earned money. Yes, without wasting a second I grabbed the opportunity and agreed upon his intention. I was entrusted to locate properties which would fit for his style of his investment .

That's where I made huge killing. I suggested him seven properties in the outskirts of the city which would ensure mind boggling returns for his investments. But as far as me concerned I had prior arrangement with the property sellers to jackup the quotation only to take my cut later on. The sellers were more than happy to share the spoils with me. My client cheated me in one property I got back to him with seven. Forget the monetary benefits. My sweet revenge stood at the ratio of one is to seven.

Quorans I m ready for the brickbats.
