Do You Think There's Anything Wrong with this NDA?

[Jim Witten]

I had to request a signed NDA/Non-Circumvention from multiple agents recently, I spent a lot of time researching and modifying templates. I made it very short/simple for them in the end.

But of the multiple agents, half had issues with it, some refused to sign it, or wanted me to gut entire sections if it, remove sentences, etc. Then the other half signed it no problem at all! It seemed to vary greatly. One of my primary concerns was circumvention, they can go behind my back and quietly market to the owner, or knock on their door to get the listing. 

One of the agents that had issue with it, said that it needed to have the specific address on it, not just "an off-market property" because that's too vague. I understand, but the problem is, if I include the actual, it defeats the point, they could refuse to sign it, they now have the address and know that person is thinking about selling, etc..... So how do I cover this issue?
