Can I fire a realestate agent before the contract is up if they aren’t showing my house?

April 152010

Other realators have told me that my realtor hasn’t allowed them to show the house. It has been on the market for 9 months and the only decent offer I had fell through because the buyer wasn’t qualified. It also hasn’t been shown for over a month.

Call their broker. They should not be involved at all in the showing of your property by buyers agents. As long as you allowed a lockbox to be installed the agent is not really involved.

Your contract is not really with an agent, it is with the broker, the one with the real license. You can keep your contract and change agents without any difficulty at all.

Does any one know how to purchase a home w/out Realestate Agent?

April 132010

Does any one have any ideas how to find an owner who wants to sell a home w/ out using a realestate agent?
We have plenty of time to find our "perfect home" in Carle Place.
On the other hand – what does a r/a do for the home buyer?
i’ve been checking all the listing on the fsbo and a like – i understand that the agent works for the seller not the buyer, i want to know what do agents do for the buyer… if anything?

Do a search online for "for sale by owner." There are numerous sites such as buyowner.com fsbo.com help-u-sell.com which sell by owner or combine MLS listings with lower fees. I agree that the realtor does little for the buyer and costs a lot of money in today’s market. Of course, you are going to get a lot of comments from realtors that you do not pay for it etc. Of course the cost of selling is reflected in the price of the house.

How much am I supposed to pay the realestate agent in commission?

April 112010

If I am selling a house for $35,000 and the buyer is getting a loan for $10,000 more ($45,000), which number should the agent commission fee be based off of? the $35k or $50k?

It may sound silly, but what regulation would I find this information? When I go back to the agent, I will need to site a good source. Saying I got it off "yahoo answers" doesn’t sound that good.
The commission is 6%, I am asking what the 6 % is based off, it seems the sale price.

The real estate agent gets the commission off the price of the house, not the size of the loan. If the buyer had a substantial amount of cash on hand to use as a down payment and borrowed $10,000 less than the price of the house I assure you the real estate agent would ask for the commission on the price of the house not the size of the loan. They can’t have it both ways.
