Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 3792789, member: 153"] So, I got a text from a friend that a potential buyer who already viewed my house with an agent wanted to purchase the house through a private sale, no agents. Now, I'm not going to cut out my agent of their commission, I also have a contract with them. Nor will they deliberately cut out a Buyer's agent, if they know about the deal. Q: what do you all who work real estate think about my putting together a private deal, organized by my real estate attorney, and me letting my seller's agent know that I will send them a check with the agreed upon proceeds at the end of the deal? Ethically, I'm beholden to my agent, and I'm not breaking a contract with them since I am paying them the agreed upon 3%. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
