Yes, I have bought a great deal of real estate (and sold some) and my wife has a license.
The reason I'm getting so frustrated w this thread, (besides being livid about missing out on a house I would have bought), is because I never suggested screwing the guy who showed me the house out of his commission. I know how that part of the business works and he was very clever, IMO, getting his name on the listing on Zillow w/o actually having anything to do w the listing. He knew nothing about the house.

If I had bought the house, he would have been entitled to his share of the commission but I still wanted to communicate directly w the seller. I did not trust that he would represent me properly and I'm 100% sure that he would have fk'ed up the proposed transaction or at least not presented it as well as I could have.

In fact, when I told the listing agent my terms, he took my number "in case anything falls through."

It won't.
