@Mario MoralesHow are you defining a "traditional agent"?

The listing agent is not providing any services, just the MLS listing.

Can you wholesale a deal that is active with a real estate agent?

@Kmsuea Abdei signing an Exclusive Buyer Agency Agreement is common, but it can limit you to working with just one agent.

Since I didn't have my own listings, I offered to other agent's to sit their open house.

I've sold properties to out of state buyers using facetime and walking through and discussing the property pro's and con's.
