“LIQUIDATED DAMAGES”

a ZOOM Realtor® Learning Series

Thursday, April 1st | 10.00 AM – 11.00 AM

RSVP

LuxeSF introduces this new program series which distills wisdom from difficult real estate transactions and translates that knowledge into detailed and actionable learning that helps other Realtors avoid those very same challenges.

A liquidated damages provision is a boilerplate, but rarely invoked, addition to every real estate contract, but when activated, it carries significant risk for uninitiated buyers and their agents. However, the recent tsunami of real estate contracts negotiated and signed for “sight unseen” properties during the COVID-19 pandemic has driven this issue to the surface, much to the chagrin of agents who have not previously encountered the situation, let alone the monetary and relationship penalties that erupt as part of the process.

Prominent San Francisco and Marin-based Realtor, Tyler Stewart has walked the walk. In this in-depth and candid conversation she outlines the facts of a transaction that cut right to the center of the liquidated damages issue, reprises the surrounding discourse that accompanied the dispute and delivers the priceless learning she drew from the experience. Let hers be a lesson to others. The attorney who represented Tyler in the process, Chris Skelton, will join the conversation to provide the supporting litigator's perspective.

Vigorous audience Q & A is encouraged.

With the credentials out of the way let's get on to the fun stuff outside the office. She is a former professional Ironman athlete who won Ironman Couer d'Alene and held the world record on the bike for many years. She currently competes in showjumping with her horses and can be found clearing her head running the Marin trails with her adorable doggo, Boo.
