Opinions on how to handle realtor conflict of interest (revenge and practical advice appreciated)

FACTS: We listed our house to sell this past Tuesday for what we believed was a low price, but "market" based on comps provided by our realtor. Two weeks prior, we talked with our realtor and he mentioned his sis was moving to our town from NY, but our house was WAY out of her range. He then showed us comps that led to the low listing. Yesterday, he brings his sister through to look at our house.

We are interested in moving one street over and one block south to a house with two more bedrooms and a master bath. We looked at it once and are keeping our options open. Yesterday, the owner of that house looked at our place and this is the email I get from the realtor (seems like a bad idea to me that he disclosed that WE were the people interested in her house) ...

Okay... so here's one of your first feedbacks. Surprisingly, the 630 Kenilworth woman looked at your house to purchase. We can talk about that later.

Question(s)
COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS: Hi Steve,
Was hoping maybe we could do a "house swap," but this house doesn't work for the seller at 630 Kenilworth. Hope it sells quickly, though!

I realize he's a sales person, and inherently can't be trusted, but I think we're either over the edge or quickly approaching the edge here. Thoughts on revenge or practical are appreciated. At the end of the day, we don't need to sell, so maybe that is the answer here.


If you support Obama you are a racist.

    • He broke the rules by disclosing to the seller who you were... - jabi - 11:00am 5/7/09
    • I'd start with honestly answering whether you want to sell your house now. - jakers - 10:51am 5/7/09
    • Dump 'em. [NT] - jabbadoody5 - 9:46am 5/7/09

          • We do. We could dump him, but if we sell the place within the next 90 days, he gets the commish - LanceManion - 10:06am 5/7/09
            • dump him, then wait it out -- better things will come. - clements2 - 10:21am 5/7/09
              • the problem is this is prime house selling season - WoodstockIrish - 11:30am 5/7/09
                • true -- but the market should still be decent late summer/early fall - clements2 - 12:47pm 5/7/09
                • Exactly. I think a simple threat would be enough to have this guy rip up the contract. - jakers - 11:36am 5/7/09
