An entitled greedy landlord tries to force my friend out of their house by raising the asking price

0:05.2

by nearly $80,000, essentially pricing my friends out completely and risking them with the

0:10.6

possibility of being homeless. So I banded together with my friends and I decided to get some

0:15.5

revenge as we sabotaged every single attempt these owners made at trying to sell this place.

0:20.7

And as a result, my friends were able to sell this place. And as a result,

0:21.8

my friends were able to buy this place for a far cheaper price than what these greedy jerks were

0:26.5

trying to offer. Here's what happened. Okay, to start things out, gazumping occurs when an agent

0:31.2

or seller accepts an offer you make to buy a property at an agreed price, but the property is

0:36.4

sold to someone else. This usually

1:05.6

was a nice old lady who was extremely wealthy and very fond of my friend. She froze the rent for five years and promised to

1:12.8

let them buy the house once they had saved enough to get a loan from the bank. Now, as she had

1:17.2

helped other people in a similar way, they knew that they could trust her, and so they saved

1:21.4

every cent that they could. It took them five years, but they finally told her that they were ready.

1:26.1

But unfortunately, two days later,

1:27.9

the nice old lady passed away, quite literally before anything was put in writing. Well, this is where

1:32.9

the new owners step in, and they are the four children of this lady. Each one of them is extremely
