I saw this one for sale house with agent name and number at it.
If i direct contact the owner of said house and make other deal will it cause any problem for the house owner? (Since he already engage the agent to sell his house?)

Usually no because most house owner does not sign any contract with the agent(s). It's mostly first come first serve situation.

A real estate lawyer I spoke to lamented that they (lawyers) do so much work but get paid less fee than agents.

Personally prefer agent, less hassle, some owners are hard to deal with, especially when it comes to price nego, might even get ghosted.
Wanna visit house also need to be at owner’s convenience. Agent will get the keys and try to make it at your time.
That’s just my thoughts. Bought my sub sale from agent. Didn’t mind letting him earn, house is less than 1m..

That's the thing between sales and support Just like any other company Support team after sales team admin team will be "doing alot more than the sales person' who chit chat drinking goyang kaki bodek and close the sealm

If selling property is simple, the owner would have sell himself and save on agent's fee, no ? And if a buyer is willing to help the owner to sell without any effort and save on agent's fee, why not ? Is something like winning a starter prize in magnum 4d. 🤣 As a owner seller, I will still collect a deposit and forfeit it if buyer change his mind B4 signing snp 😀 This post has been edited by mini orchard: Jul 10 2025, 06:50 AM

Will draft a simple agreement on tnc rgd deposit payment. Deposit in my bank is better than in someone else bank for faster action 🤣. If buyer don't agreed, then he is free to contact my agent.

U can’t buy direct from owner without offer and contract. Period.
Agent acts as the safekeeper and middle person for the sales unless u want to engage two lawyers to act for you. End up costing even more.
What u can do is deal with the owner and agreed a fixed price then only find an agent for offer/contract purposes at a fixed sum. In this way u can skip the commission part.
