It seems that if she is more cooperative if you let her represent you, there are some ethics problems going on.  

I have evicted tenants that were too lazy to work; that quit their job because they don't have a work ethic, because they are druggies; because they are drunks; because they spent their rent money on a big screen tv; because they spent the rent money on a pit bull, etc.

But thanks for standing up to the plate to at least state the ethical decision...some people need that.EricFoster...it seems as if you may have had an experience with a situation like this or at least deem it to be very easy...so please offer your opinion.

Not sure how ethical your partnership would be if it is the way you are explaining it.

From a moral and ethical standpoint, I believe the right thing to do would be to reimburse the buyer their expenses as well as to compensate your agent  

If you quoted your agent correctly, then it appears your agent is violating ethics rules as well as giving advice on a topic they know nothing about (taxes), which by the way opens them up to professional liability. 

From the financial return perspective, we care mainly about the following topics but not limited to ... 1) Is the sponsor ethical and deliver what they said 2) Does the reward compensate for the risk we have to take?

I am a first time home buyer and find all this extremely un-ethical. 

We served in the military together and was able to vouch for my dedication and work ethic.

Your cf, skills and work ethic can yield many plants.
