Entering into a real estate contract can often feel risky. Many agents make grand promises about buying or selling your home, but few deliver on those promises. A recent survey showed that over 80% of home buyers and sellers were dissatisfied with their agent's performance, even if that agent had previously sold them a property. Most traditional agreements lock you into long-term commitments with hefty cancellation fees, making it easy for the agent to exit the agreement but difficult for you.
