I represented the family as their buyer's agent when this condo was purchased a year ago.

In this case, you are only paying 3% because the agent already represents you and the buyer is in place.

Also remember we can all advocate to our representatives and senators to lobby for our interests. 

Typically there's insufficient data of that sort, for stuff like this, an an appraiser toeing the party line might say "whelp if there aren't enough homes selling with sheds, that represents a lack of demand for the feature in this market." 

Thank you Tim, I have done a little more digging and the attorney states the hold the first lien position representing one client, but also emphasized that the property is sold as is and is the buyers responsibility to do their own due diligence.

Personal networks, I represented myself.

That's paid for equity, and equity is just a form of cash that is temporarily dead.4 - New equity, that comes from YOUR TENANT paying down you mortgage, and appreciation, is free.5 - Your paid for equity has a true value of $5 for every $1 of cash you put in, which is represented by the 20% DP. 

That represents approximately 19 million people.30% of renters said they had no confidence they would be able to pay next month’s rent.How do you Leverage your piece of the $25 Billion?

A "listing" is where you represent a home seller in an effort to sell their home to a suitable buyer. 

It is clear there is a conflict of interest and he's not going to represent you properly.
