I came across this whilst trying to explain the cooling off laws to a buyer who thought I was trying to pull a stunt. I utilise the cooling off laws for the benefit of both parties. I always explain to my vendor once signed they are bound and we discuss issues of time frames etc ~ however I can see it could be utilised unscrupulously by some. The benefit for the vendor is a qualified buyer and if in the small chance of a rescinded contract some consideration for their expense. It allows the agent to be forthright and honest in negotiation ~ something we are always accused of not being! Over the past 13 years I have participated in over 200 exchanges with cooling off and have had less than 5% not proceed. If the purchaser opts to proceed through a solicitor using a 66w certificate instead then I do warn them that under the legislation I must continue to present all offers to the vendor until contracts have been exchanged. The funniest part about this being that after explaining this I get accused from the buyer that I will &#39;gazump&#39; them ~ after they have refused to utilise the &#39;anti-gazumping&#39; legislation! regards Jamesjames Shugghttp://raywhitecoolangatta.com.au/agent/james-shugg/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-660137901102000733.post-66881285696956541802012-10-19T08:47:02.370+11:002012-10-19T08:47:02.370+11:00Yes, I agree with you. This is a significant issue when it comes to franchising. I personally feel it’s disappointing to have nothing but the revenue after the franchise contract ends. On second thought, it’s a rather good thing because it makes way for a new business opportunity. You now have the money to put to good use - start your own business, perhaps. Franchising has actually been good to provide you some training.Lonnie Lisahttp://www.franchisewithalwaysbestcare.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-660137901102000733.post-29686582498430736362012-04-07T18:51:10.822+10:002012-04-07T18:51:10.822+10:00This blog is very nice and informative! <br />I&#39;m very impressive with your blog.<br />keep sharing.....<br />Thanks for sharing.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.easylaw.co.uk/services/personal-injury.html" rel="nofollow">Negligence Solicitors Liverpool</a>Daniel Hirschhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17731229764997999429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-660137901102000733.post-79033028106278872662008-12-09T22:20:00.000+11:002008-12-09T22:20:00.000+11:00test commentFrankhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16798262761850501524noreply@blogger.com
