Description
Plaintiffs, Richard and Susan Tennant, husband and wife, appeal from a judgment which dismissed their complaint against defendant Boyer and Cox Realty, Inc., and which awarded them damages in the amount of $1,525.50 against defendant Dorothy M. Lawton, presently known as Dorothy M. Hultgren. The thrust of plaintiffs' appeal is (1) that Boyer and Cox Realty failed to exercise due care in its capacity as agent/broker in the sale of a parcel of land in April 1975 from Mrs. Hultgren, as seller, to plaintiffs, as purchasers; and (2) that the trial court improperly reduced the amount of plaintiffs' damages because, the trial court concluded, plaintiffs had already mitigated those damages.*fn1 We reverse the judgment insofar as it dismissed the realtor from liability; and we modify the judgment insofar as it reduced the amount of damages awarded.
