I have a long long list of people who have screwed me or my friends over and I never forget who they are. I make notes of times, dates and places so that if someone asks me for a referral I can pull out the notes, dates and places so that I can provide them with SPECIFIC information in detail. In addition, I have near 20/20 memory all the way back to when I was five years old. I'm Jack Rabbit quick to make sure that any chance I have to refer business AWAY from these losers, I do so.
I know how to vet out a potential problem purchaser which saves me untold hours of headaches and trouble. They simply are not allowed to purchase what I have for sale, no matter how good a deal it may appear on the surface, trouble is coming. If I am shopping for a product or service and have the slightest indication that a seller/service provider is going to be a problem, I WALK AWAY AS FAST AS POSSIBLE, it isn't worth doing business with an a**.
In my experience, only about 1 in 1000 people in any given field of endeavor are truly competent and fair dealing. The other 999 aren't worth doing business with and will most certainly result in a sub par end user experience.

Then you shouldn't even deal with YOU. Obviously you don't understand the meaning of "closing date". After we close, the property changes hands and you no longer have ownership. As to your "fair", it seems it means that they need to bend over backwards and kiss your ass.
What are the brownie points worth? You going to give someone a 50% discount? As to your referrals, unless they are to someone who holds your opinion of one incident to encompass everything, I don't think someone is missing much.
You mean like someone who closes and leaves their crap on the new owner's property and expects them to be magnanimous about it?
Again, how are we defining fair and competent? You don't even understand what the closing on a property means so how are YOU competent? Fair is when the guy gave you time to remove your crap. Actually, that is more than fair. He has every right to toss it on the street.
