You’re Fired!

It can be very frustrating if you’re buying a house right now because of the lack of inventory and it’s frustrating for your agent as well – good agents have to be available at all hours of the day and night to meet their clients so they see the new listings before they sell.   It’s generally a multi offer situation and your have to pay over list price and only looking at it for a few minutes, it’s tough.  Sometimes after losing 2 or 3 houses buyers may look to another agent hoping for better luck and sometimes it’s merited but if you do decide to fire your agent you owe them a telephone call.  Real estate agents are independent contractors and are not paid until you buy and close on a house so all of their time spent working with you is free of charge until you close.
