I used the agent to sell my house and he took to to some houses I was interested in buying. I signed a contract with him but want to know this. If I found a house on my own and went there and the agent never showed me the house (although he did send it to me after we looked at it) can I buy the house and cut the agent out of the commission even if I was in a contract. The seller will move on price more if we do not have an agent as it is a new home?
You aren't being screwed, you're trying to screw the agent out of a commission you agreed to pay him in the contract. Besides, you need someone to cover your back in all the paperwork.
It is far better that you wait according to the contract you signed, other wise the agents lawyer will make your life miserable for a long time.
There is not anything unethical along with her request. In truth, that is what a 'well' agent is needed to do. It protects each the agent and the customer. You have got to appear on the photograph from the agent's POV.... let's consider she does not require that you just signal an contract after which she spends 6 months browsing for a apartment on your want - you discover a estate after which say...Thanks however I recognize John Doe is a realtor so I wish him take over and coplete the sale. That's no longer reasonable to the primary agent in view that she did the entire paintings and announced you to the apartment...however alongside comes John Doe to seize the fee for undoubtedly no paintings performed. With a illustration contract the whole lot is evidently recognized the agent represents you and is operating for you completely. Perhaps she will have to have defined that the agreement was once for an complete 12 months -BUT simply in view that she did not that doesn't imply you'll be able to holiday the agreement. As with all truly property transactions purchasers/dealers are instructed to touch an lawyer to study all contracts/agreements earlier to signing. You are not able to maintain your agent in charge in view that you didn't search authorized recommend or learn the satisfactory print earlier to signing the contract. You can continually request to be published from the contract however the agent and/or her dealer don't seem to be obligated to honor your request. More than most probably regardless that...the dealer would come to a decision your huff and puff is not valued at the argument and can honor your request to circumvent what you signed. If he does, please don't forget to learn ALL contracts earlier than hand someday and ASK questions approximately what you're no longer special approximately.
