Dear Hayzinut5,
I am not sure what type of contract you might have signed. When you first began working with an agent you should have signed the Consumer Information Statement, this is not a contract. If you signed a Buyers Agreement you have signed a document that you can easily get out of by writting to the agent an terminating the agreement. This is expained in pragraph 4 of the Buyers Agreement.
I do not know why your agent is not meeting your needs and showing you the properties that you want to see. I would be more than happy to assist you in finding your first home and I will make sure that you are aware of all financing & downpayment assistance programs that are available to First Time Home Buyers, especially in the Atlantic City Area. I am with Keller Williams Realty and specialize in finding homes for First Time Home Buyers. I can be contacted directly at 609-457-7397. You asked if what you are experiencing is normal. My answer to your question is that it may be normal in some agencies but it most assuridly not normal in our office. - Wed Nov 11 2009, 13:08
