What kind of responsibility should an intermediary company bear for providing false information?

Subsequently, Yu signed a tripartite contract with the owner Tian and the intermediary company. There is no agreement about the terrace in the contract. After the contract was signed, the plaintiff measured the house and found that the so-called 40 square meters did not exist. Therefore, the plaintiff sued Wang to the court on the grounds of major misunderstanding, demanding to cancel the contract and refund the purchase price and the agency fee paid to the intermediary company. The court held that the construction area indicated in the tripartite contract is completely consistent with the actual construction area of the house and the construction area registered in the house property certificate, that is, 150 square meters, of which the balcony area is 22 square meters. Before signing the contract, the plaintiff actually inspected the house and checked the house ownership certificate, so he should have a clear understanding of the area and structure of the house he purchased. The owner is not at fault, because he has truthfully issued all relevant materials about the house and is unaware of the advertisements made by the intermediary company. After accepting the entrustment of the owner to sell the house, the intermediary company made a statement inconsistent with the actual situation in the advertising, so the intermediary company was at fault when concluding the contract and should bear corresponding responsibilities. The lawyer commented that the house involved in this case was a second-hand existing house, not an auction house. It exists objectively and has a clear structure. It is not a disguised subject matter, and the house is confirmed by the ownership certificate issued by the authoritative department. In addition, there is no balcony drawing speed in the tripartite contract. Therefore, the tripartite contract is not a contract concluded due to major misunderstanding, and the plaintiff's request for refund of the payment should not be supported. However, the intermediary company's act of providing false information has harmed the interests of the client and may not require payment of remuneration, so the intermediary fee charged by the intermediary company should be returned to the plaintiff. Lawyers advise buyers to pay attention to: first, don't blindly believe in real estate advertisements, be sure to look at the house by yourself and check it carefully; Second, the commitment of the owner or intermediary company must be clearly written in the contract.
