You could ask the listing broker to present your offer only to give you a little leverage, but it has its own problems, if another offer comes higher and he has to present, than you don't have the leverage you had with your commission to get your deal accepted.

All I can say is, try harder.

"Always want a deal never need one."

Yes, they might, ask the realtor.

Mr. @Scott Gombar I never saw it in that light but you are right.

I like what @Jon Holdman said.

Friend you might also what to do this, you have a Real Estate Agent on board, great, and he/she has relationship with a title company, try First American Title.

have him contact the title company and get you a list of absentee owners for a median price range area. 

here is the search criteria

Look for the ones who have not done any transfer of title for the past 10 years.  that means they have equity. write this letter to them.

Dear Mr. Smith,

Would you consider selling your property located at:

XYX, in the city of Xyx

to us?

If you still have question write it and I am sure someone even more qualified then men will give your more answers.

if you have access to MLS great, If you use a title company ask them to see if they give you access otherwise you can use propertyradar.com

Friend these are two different things. Title company can not find you deals. They only archive data and research them. However, you use their services as a realtor. What you need is to get into real estate business.

You have a lot of questions and a long life ahead of you. Get your license and join the club. 

I Like @Elizabeth Colegrove answer and @Bruce Park Welcome to BP

From Everything I have seen and heard, even I myself a few years ago tried to get a general contractor license and I passed the law but failed at the trade test in California. Than I met a person who used to be a contractor and he said, when he started to buy and sell properties, he decided to let go of his contractor license because it carried too much liability for him. So he convinced me not go follow through. And I did not. 

I guess it is a matter of preference.
