Question
Hello, A broker received an apartment for sale at 2 million shekels. He found a client and told him that the price of the apartment is 2.2 million shekels, and the client wants to buy. He went to tell the seller that he wants to receive the difference, and the seller agreed. Is there a prohibition in this? If not, what prohibition is he violating?
Answer
Hello
If it was done with the seller's consent, there is no prohibition here.
[Even if the price is inflated, there is no issue of overcharging in real estate sales].
