The contract was prepared and typed in Broker's office. As there were numerous conditions and terms that had been agreed upon by Seller and Buyer, the contract was quite long and involved. Since the amount of deposit obtained by Broker from Buyer was equal to what his commission was going to be, in the middle of one of the long paragraphs was the phrase "In the event the buyer defaults, the deposit shall be retained by the broker as his compensation."
