22 conversation with Mrs. Garnier on the 21st of
23 March, she also emphasized that they wished to
24 keep the agreement verbal.
25 Q And that’s reiterated here, as well, in the last
26 sentence, which is:
27
28 There is no need for a rental agreement as
29 you are taking care of things.
30
31 The next paragraph goes on to say:
32
33 You recently sent us listings of properties
34 in Burnaby on East Hastings.
35
36 That’s true as well, correct?
37 A As per the letter of the 2nd of April, yes.
38 Q Okay. And it goes on to say:
39
40 You know we want a property on the West
41 side. You suggested Kerrisdale and that you
42 could get us a property on a quite street,
43 newer and for a lower price. Now you think
44 that — you said that Burnaby would be
45 appropriate for us.
46
47 That’s also accurate?
719 Raymond Hunter (a Third Party)Cross-exam by Mr. Davison
1 A No, it is definitely not accurate. I at no time
2 said that they could get a property in Kerrisdale
3 on a quite street. And this goes back to my
4 testimony a short while ago that they vastly were
5 overestimating, you know, what their capabilities
6 were.
22 Q Okay. So the next sentence:
23
24 After finalizing the contract of purchase
25 and sale for your friend, all of a sudden
26 our property is worth a lot more.
27
28 That was true, as well? You were saying that
29 the market had started going up in — in mid 2007,
30 correct?
31 A The market did in fact start going up.
37 Q And then it goes on to say:
38
39 You still have not responded to our letter
40 dated March 19th, 2007 with regards to our
41 concerns and the two deposits which were
42 made by the buyer according to the terms of
43 the contract of purchase and sale agreement.
