I am supposed to be starting with an agency as of the 1st of the year, so that will give me LEGAL mls access.

I thought you were getting a job at the start of the month with an agency?

When I emailed her to ask, she just sent me a doc that covers agency relationships.

This is performing agency service for you, and they'll earn realty commissions, so this is their initial incentive and compensation.

Brenda,Maybe you could try volunteering at a real estate agency part time since the area is flooded with agents.

Waiting for the last agency to finalize.

www.icg.com -- A RE investor referral agency.

I told her I will also need a security deposit and she is contacting several agencies to get assistance to pay it.

So, you shouldn't be fighting with an agent at all, only their broker (and you probably shouldn't be fighting with the broker either).Second, you only pay a commission if the deal is closed (there are some edge cases where you'd technically owe a commission on a deal that's not consummated, but those would involve you not living up to an executed agreement, which you never had with the buyer the first time around).Third, if an agent/broker has an issue with a buyer breaching an agency relationship, that is between the broker and the buyer, not the seller.

Once its sold, its his lot. that's my first answer.The second is that you need to check with your local building dept / code enforcement agency.
