Should I switch realtors?

Last week I made a list of unlisted 3-unit properties for sale in my area. Houses that have been owned for 10+ years and should have some equity, so there’s definitely a chance the current owner will want to sell. Friday I met with my realtor and I only gave her 25% of the list, I figured she would probably try to gain more business from the seller because they don’t have anyone representing them. Today my realtor told me she found a seller that’s already interested and she along with another realtor are going to meet with them on Monday. So I replied, am I going? She said it’ll just be them two so they can give the seller a market analysis . So basically I just did the job for my realtor and she could sell it to anyone. Should I get a new realtor or just do this on my own? I’ll also be selling my current house.

@Roger Evans  So you gave her a list of an unlisted property and she then went and found another buyer for it?  Definitely find another realtor.  Follow up on the other unlisted listings yourself and only get a realtor involved if you need at the time you are making an offer.  Your current realtor is not ethical based on what you've said.
