there's a section that speaks to offering to pay part of their commission to a firm that produces a buyer."This is generally referred to as the commission split". "The listing broker is offering 0 to potential cooperating brokers". I am sick to my stomach and I'm an idiot. Attorney originally told me "the agents typically work it out". I called him on Friday and he said he'd call her on Saturday and he'd let me know as soon as he heard anything back from her. So far she should not have placed on MLS or done any advertising or marketing if she followed my instructions; because of the tree and the price I told her don't advertise or do MLS until I tell you a price and that the tree has been removed.I Think I have to appeal to the brokerage owner. The agent is the biggest in the county. I think I just shot myself in both feet. I'm concerned about attorney approac of "wait for her to get back to him". Thankyou, Mary z. I'm in NJ

Realtor knows of stroke i had last year.Asked me to sign Listing Agreement and told her I was uncomfortable, She said she understands the contract and went through it with me. Didn't cover clause that says buyer agent gets 0% percent; told me also that 6-9 month contract is typical. i spoke with lawyer who said he'll contact her and will let me know when/if he hears from her. What should I do? House has not been shown to anyone because I told agent i was uncomfortable with price and I also had tree fall on property. I want to put in writing that she is to not market or advertise or put on any mls. Attorney hasn't called me back yet and i don't like his approach of let's wait for her to call him. Any advice?
