I will use neighborhoodscout as my reference but use NAR, Zillow or any reputable source.

For example, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) reports that around 10% of home sales occur without being listed on the MLS.

This is the pertinent section of a NAR Exclusive Buyer Agency Agreement from PA.

hey BP family,I’ve run into a bit of a roadblock, I’m direct to agent and I’ve wondering how to get around the new NAR settlement, as soon as I hop on a call with the agent, they ask if I’m represented and then hang up the phone no matter if I say yes or no.

We all know what happened on August 17th because of the NAR ruling and lawsuit.

You clearly don't know what your doing and should NOT, by the rules and codes of NAR, be a primary listing agent on anything right now.

This probably has to do with the new rules that went into effect after the NAR Settlement that went into effect this summer.  

With the new NAR ruling it's making things even more difficult.  

High inflation, wages not keeping up, supply slowly rising, demand slowly falling, rates pending for a controlled easing... these factors point to a correction but nowhere near the depth / breadth of '08.NAR ruling is also another factor (though many agents will disagree) that will take much longer to see its effects but is pending for some housing adjustments.

@johnunderwood Lot of changes out there:  The NAR lawsuit ruling, the TCPA text law, SC double-close law and don't forget GA's new law banning direct mail RE solicitations unless it is clearly marked on the envelope, which means your expensive letter is most likely going directly into the trash can.
