Pocket Listing (2016)

Synopsis

Follows the rise and fall of a hot-shot Los Angeles broker named Jack, as he starts off at the top of his game but winds up a downtrodden slumlord of a poorly maintained tenement. His only saving grace is a friendship he develops with a young teenager named Billy, who helps him manage the place, keeps him company, and still makes him feel worth while. After a lien is set on the Downtown building and Jack is given a 30 day dead line, he springs back into action and tries to land an under-the-table, fast-paying gig which can cover what he owes on the building. In comes Lana, a seductive mystery woman who makes him an offer he cannot refuse: the chance to quietly market and sell a prime-time Malibu beach house, which at first seems like an easy deal to close but turns out to be much more intricate than expected. Jack soon discovers that Lannas husband, a power player oil tycoon named Hunter, is involved in shady operations which could jeopardize not only the houses sale, but Jacks life as well. With time running out and predators lurking at every corner, Jack is forced to resort to desperate measures to survive in a world where nobody is who they seem and closing a deal can literally be a matter of life and death.
