The broker should not have lifted a finger to help you without a listing agreement. He brought you an interested party that you would not have found yourself and now you want to not pay him. When this falls through, do a for sale by owner and see what that gets you. FISBO's typically get about 16% less than if it is listed. When you list, you have 100's of people trying to help you sell it. When you are trying to do it yourself, you have one. The 6% you are paying will actually make you an extra 10%. Hopefully the broker learned a lesson and won't try to help people without a contract anymore. - Sat Feb 21 2009, 09:34
