How to terminate buyer representation agreement
I know people would say don't sign it in the beginning. But I was stupid and signed it.
It's after we made 5 offers that I realized she doesn't know the market well and it's less likely to get a good house by working with her. So I want to terminate the contract now. There are still 3 month left before the agreement expires.
But I have to admit that she answered bunch of my questions, showed me ~10 houses and submitted 5 offers which are non-trivial work. I would expect her to be angry if I walk away now.
Looking for suggestions on how to bring up this to her and to negotiate the termination. I'm totally fine with paying a little bit for the service she provided. If that works, can anyone suggest an appropriate amount?
