My agent in Maryland is doing a poor job at trying to sell my house. Can I change agents to another company?

No agent wants to loose a client however if they have not fulfilled what you think is reasonable then by all means you have the right to rescind your contract with them. The TRICK here is to tell your agent you want an UNCONDITIONAL release from the contract. However, you may want to re-read your contract and see if there is a clause or money that must be paid if you get out of the contract.

Check if you've signed a contract with the agent - you may have had to sign up with them for a minimum period, but this would not usually be enforceable (what if you decide not to sell your house?).
In the UK there is usually no problem in changing agent especially if you they aren't performing.
Give them a reason and then change agent.

Even if you've signed an agreement, ask your Agent to let you out. Any good Agent will be ok with it if it's handled properly. You should reimburse him/her for any $ spent on your behalf, and you will owe a commission if you buy a house because of his/her efforts.

I f you have signed an agreement with them for a certain period of time you will have to wait until the agreement ends before you can change unless your agent releases you from that contract.

Even if you signed a contract, most agents don't want to work with someone who doesn't want to work with them. Let your current agent know you aren't happy with their level of service and you want to go with someone else. If they get difficult or snippy, call their broker or manager.

Don't feel bad I'm going through the same thing and Yes! you once your contract is up with them. That is if you sign one, and if not you change anytime.

You can, but what does your contract stipulate? Is it exclusive for 6 months?
