I found the condo, my broker didn't. Could invite her if I need her to seal the deal?

You are entitled to your own representation, and if you get it in writing that you want an agent to represent you, the listing REALTOR must cooperate. However, they may not be liable to pay your agent any cooperative commission since your agent was not the "procuring cause" of the sale.
If you counter on it that you're being represented by another real estate agent, that should not be an issue, but you cannot expect to have the listing brokerage pay for those services. You could roll your the REALTOR fee into your closing costs and see if the seller will pay a certain amount to help you make up the difference, but there's no guarantee that would fly. I hope this helps.

You can do whatever you want in a counter offer. By them countering to you, they free you of any further responsibilty. So, in your counter, you can change everything about your offer. Now, whether they accept it or not is up to them. Good luck!

If you already made an offer and they accept it, then you're bound by your original offer. If they don't accept it, you can do whatever you want to for a second offer.
