Participantmatt-waiting pretty much summed it up. Also if you want to try to recoup some of your costs then put those conditions in the offer. That is, in the offer stipulate the conditions of what should happen if the home does not appraise and the sellers do not sell it to you at appraised value. For example if they don’t sell it to you at appraised value then they shall recoup your appraisal costs, inspection costs etc… The listing agent probably will resist because they know the home will not appraise either but at least you can try. After all it wouldn’t cost you any money. Alternately if it is poorly priced they will chase the market down and you can make an offer every month or two.

Participantnj I was not addressing anyone in particular other then to say that the fiduciary obligation is secondary to direct instructions from the seller. I don’t share the opinions that listing agents purposely don’t list homes on the MLS in hopes of double ending deals. I feel that this is by far and away the exception to the norm. The risk of getting busted is quite substantial so for someone to imply that agents act in that manner is something I do not agree with at all. I do believe that the majority of homes not in active status have valid reasons and all it takes is a little legwork to find out why.

ParticipantSunny if you want to go through the listing agent simply call them up and let them know that. If you want to not be represented at all then yes get some blank forms and fill them out yourself. I would not recommend that but it is your call to make. At least if you let the listing agent double end the deal you “should” have all the documentation prepared correctly assuming the listing agent is not a shlump.
