Uncooperative Seller’s agent

Ben Meller

Good afternoon BP community.

I have a question regarding a situation I’m in and maybe someone can give me some input from their experience.

I have a specific property I am interested in and already saw it.

For about a week now My broker is trying to get financial information from the sellers broker but we keep getting mixed answers regarding the utilities, leases.

Last time we asked for clarification, the sellers broker said that the information he gave us is what he has and that’s it.

My question is as follows:

Can I contact the seller myself ( not in an attempt to avoid Paying the real estate agents, but to actually get the information we want from the owner).

I did find the owner here on BP but still haven’t contacted him yet.

I believe that their real estate agent is not being very helpful , in a situation where I do want to put an offer already, but would like to receive answers for important questions before doing so.

I actually feel like I would be helping the seller if I contacted him, because his real estate agent is not really eager to get this deal done in my opinion.

What are your thoughts ?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Ben.
