Good evening,

We are working with a rebating agent who limits the number of showings in exchange for a significant commission rebate. On another forum, it was suggested that we can call the listing agent for a property and ask them to show us their home. If we do this, and we like the house, we could still come back with our buyer's agent and then make an offer. If asked whether we are working with an agent by the listing agent, it was suggested that we be honest. However, if not asked, we were told that we don't need to say anything to the listing agent.

Does this sound reasonable, or could we run into problems if we have a listing agent show us a house and then make an offer on it with our rebating buyer's agent?

Thank you so much!

 I see. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and experience.

We have been looking at homes zoned to Bellaire High School in Houston, TX. To "learn the market," we went to 10 open houses since early-to-mid February. Of those, only 1/10 has gone under contract and was finally sold. The other 9 are still on the market (90% on market > 1 month, sometimes >> 1 month).

I do realize that this area was hit hard by flooding. However, it seems that 90% of homes going unsold is a little high, even for February/March? Also, most of the homes we saw did not flood. Are we missing something?

Thank you so much!

Having the same problem as the other posters. Cannot post in local forum.

I apologize if this is the wrong forum - if so, please let me know a better place to post.
