I can understand, I as a Broker of an office had a lawsuit over the flooding of a house when Katrina rains came through....Two of my agents were involved and the listing agent was the wife of the builder...they allowed pictures on screen of the lady standing in her driveway and the picture looked like 10' of water. I did not know until after the rains anything about the area flooding...so they dismissed my Buyer's Agent but sued me and my other agent and won. I went to the city and the mayor said the house was not in a flood area and water never got in the house just the garage...the people lived there 16 months never made a payment and never did any repairs...so the 165,000 amount to me was so ridiculous and this is the second time they have done this....nothing could be brought up about that and they also got the tripled damages, which the judge awarded and he was a partner with their attorney, in the past. So I feel I was wronged in the whole thing.....That shows how crooked our court systems are!!!
