In this kind of disputes, there is a common feature, that is, the next buyer thinks that since he signed an intermediary contract with the intermediary, agreed on the specific terms of sale, and paid a certain amount of intention money in advance or paid part of the house price, but ultimately failed to buy a house, it is considered that the intermediary has breached the contract. The author calls this kind of dispute "underwriting dispute", that is, the next family mistakenly thinks that the intermediary must succeed, otherwise it is a breach of contract. In the past two years, there have been many such disputes because of the rising house prices. Buying a house fails, house prices rise, and it is difficult for buyers to balance their psychology. Such a claim cannot be supported by the court. Intermediary service is information service and media service, and the most striking feature of intermediary service is "intermediary", that is, the intermediary is not an agent of any party, and its service behavior is a transaction behavior, not a legal behavior, which cannot determine whether the sale will succeed in the end, and certainly cannot bear the rights or obligations of any party.
