Requiring a home seller to sign a buyer-broker AAR?

My potential Selling Agent wants me to not only sign the listing agreement exclusive right to sell which is understandable but also a buyer-broker exclusive Employment Agreement for 7 mo. is this even ethical? He also won't give me a listing price until i sign the listing agreement. How do I know if I want to hire him without that?

I can see why an agent would ask of you to sign a buyer broker agreement, though not insist on it. Talking with a couple agents to see what your options are can be a good idea. You will want to agree on a price before signing anything.

Hi Kim. How many Realtors did you interview before choosing this one? Is this something typical for your area? I usually recommend interviewing 3 agents before choosing one. Here in PA we all adhere to standard practices but each agent handles things a little differently. Best of luck with your sale!
