One guy who showed us a flat in Brixton was really sweating and
panicking. Eventually he blurted out: “Look, are you going to take
it?” When we said no, he just turned and legged it out of the flat.
Then we watched him through the window, furiously thumping the bonnet
of his car. He’d spotted that he’d been given a parking ticket but was
so desperate for the sale, he obviously thought “If I get this
commission, that fine will pay for itself”.
