Linda Cavanaugh's dilemma
My fair city has a crisis at hand. It seems our Mayor hired a consultant for the city and then his Realtor wife helped find her a house and earned a $12,000.00 commission.
As always, there is more to the story but that is a nut shell and to me an obvious conflict of interest. Sorry Linda, I am sure you are a good Realtor but in this case you needed to work for free or let someone else help the consultant. There are plenty of Realtors with time on their hands. Ideally, when serving the Public one has to be above it all and in this case, Jim is not and neither are you. Do not be greedy! I am sure you get enough clients, due to your husband's position, with no conflict of interest. Be content with those until his term expires.
