Re: listing agents contracts
Your contract with the realtor has to be reviewed. If your contract contains the usual expected language you will have to pay the broker. The other alternative is to wait until the listing expires. I suggest you consult with legal counsel. Gerald Hershenson Esq.

It all depends on the contract, but unless the listing is set to expire, you will need to pay the realtor. Contact my office to discuss this matter further.
