Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim spent $44 million on Tamir Sapir's Duke Semans Mansion this summer?the day after the brokers' exclusives on the property ended. Of course those brokers, Brown Harris Stevens' Paula Del Nunzio and Shirley Mueller, wanted their 4 percent commission, so they sued for it. Now the two sides have settled, with the BHS brokers getting an unknown amount of compensation. If only Slim had waited a month to do the deal, he probably wouldn't be in this situation.
