Some of our favourite quotes from the show:

“People come into the real estate industry thinking it's an easy way to make money. Those agents that we deal with, those agents who've been in their marketplace a long time, they don't blur those lines.” -   Michael Yardney

“I think it's important for the agent to submit offers to their client, and there's a timeframe. They've got to do it promptly. But that doesn't stop them from going to any other interested parties. In fact, it's their obligation to their client, the vendor, to go to other interested parties.” - Michael Yardney

“In Queensland, you've got time to do the due diligence after signing a contract. In Victoria, you get a vendor statement. So each state has different levels of vendor disclosure, and if you don't understand that, you can be in for some unfortunate surprises.” - Michael Yardney
