Is it legal to help a buyer bypass a realtor?

[Simon Tamm]

I approached the seller of a property before they made listing agreements with their realtor and am allowed to purchase the property without going through the realtor. Is it legal for me to purchase the place with the intent to add no value and sell it to another potential buyer to save them money and make some profit (15% markup vs 30% realtor commission for example.)

The place is a commercial property currrently being sold for value with equipment and furnishings coming with it for free. Could I argue that the markup is because I want to charge for the furnishings and equipment?
