If through a listing broker it will depend on what the listing broker entered on the MLS and MLS rules.In Georgia for instance on FMLS if as a broker you screw up and enter commission wrong,mistake things etc. you can be on the hook for the commission or lose access to the MLS.MLS's are sometimes controlled by REALTOR associations and other times are private entities that are non-profits or for-profit organizations.Also the brokers/agents involved it would matter if they were REALTORS or not.Generally your state's real estate commission does not handle commission disputes.They only care about license laws.The agent can argue procuring cause with the other agent but it should not stop your sale.Simply you would close and get your proceeds and the commission in question would be froze until a solution was given and signed in writing or a court order.There are so many variables to this and it is state specific.Procuring cause is a chain of events leading up to a sale of a property.If the chain is broken generally the broker/agents is not due a commission.The moral of the whole story is the buyers agent needs to learn how to protect themselves in the future.I am not going to court to get my agents commission when I only charge them a 300 flat fee as a broker.No legal advice

That is a "crushing it" deal you landed.With section 8 paying you will ride the government gravy train.Paul you haven't said if you will be buying all cash.I don't like the fact the house is from 1973.You have to worry about lead based paint and the EPA instead of being built in the later years.You have to worry they just put lipstick on it.Remember many of these companies do not care about you they just want the check.A connection should be formed with someone local to the area wanting to form a relationship with you that will last generations and help you get into good deals where you will not be into trouble down the road.I can tell you just 3 to 4 years ago getting houses for these prices was unheard of.It will not last forever.
