[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, that sounds like an agent issue, not a seller issue. Agents are not going to give up their commissions easily. Be realistic here.

You can still submit an offer yourself but expect to be outcompeted if there is a competing offer that does offer buyer’s agent commission.[/quote]

I am aware of that. Selling agent refused to submit my offer unless I hire a buyer agent that she pointed at [/quote]

This is not legal and the only proper response is to tell the selling agent is to tell her that she needs to present your offer to her client or you will be reporting her to the state real estate commission.

The customer is the only one that can refuse the offer.  The sales agent does not have the right to selectively present offers to their client.  That is a clear violation of not only state law but federal law (the Fair Housing Act).  If the customer chooses not to take an offer without a buyer's agent, that is completely different from the sales agent refusing to present the offer to the client without a buyer's agent.

If you have a record of the exchange with the sales agent, either an email exchange or a recording, then it really should go to the state's real estate commission because this is an egregious violation of real estate law.[/quote]
