Most homeowners think that when they sign into a contract with a Realtor they are bound to it. I've heard countless stories of Realtors just taking a property listing, putting it on the MLS (Multiple Listing Service), and hoping for the best, like pulling the pin on a grenade and waiting for the explosion.
That's very rare in today's market, unless a property is way under FMV (Fair Market Value). I myself would advertise a low ball property vigorously for prompt closing.
Always remember that it's your property, and you deserve the best quality in the sale of it. Before you sign anything, make sure there is a right to cancel the contract under non-performance circumstances clause. Your house is not a grenade. It's a large investment that should be taken seriously.
I always tell my clients when I meet them, "If you're not happy with my performance, fire me," because in reality, you're hiring me when I list your property.
