Donny Deutsch Scams Realtor

Former MSNBC host and regular channel change motivator Donny Duetsch lost a lawsuit because he went behind his realtor’s back when brokering a deal. Deutsch is the son of a billionaire and apparently figured he didn’t need to pay his realtor’s commission free because God made less rich people for rich people to shit upon. His realtor brought him a potential buyer for his $30 million dollar crash house. Instead of brokering the deal through the realtor, Duetsch just contacted the buyer directly and did the deal without him. This thought briefly goes through anyone’s mind until they realize they have a conscience, or lacking that, a contract. The judge lambasted Deutsch for being an entitled fake glasses wearing prick:

“This court considers that and refusal to acknowledge [realtor] as the broker to be marks of dishonesty and greed… Both characteristics are particularly unbecoming when exhibited by those blessed with great wealth”

The commission owed is $1.2 million. It’s mildly irritating that some Coldwell Banker tool with a convertible can simply arrange a meeting between two rich people and earn that kind of cash. But that’s why you employ them. If you don’t want to hire a realtor you’re going to have to check your own email and make yourself available on weekends and buy lots of potpourri and hot pockets. But you don’t have that kind of time. That’s why you pay the big bucks after the judge calls you an asshole.
