I'm a seller, can I have 2 RE agents?

[Nikkie69]

hello, this is my first time to sell a house and it's been on the market for 1 month. a townhome in our complex was sold in 2 weeks (same size & condition as ours).

anyway, we got an awesome RE agent, he was referred to us by our friends and he was very successful with his transactions with them (like getting their homes sold for more than asking price, good strategy). take note though our home is located in an area which is not his specialty. but we hired him anyway because we know he is very hardworking and has good strategy.

but our home has been on the market for a month now and i am wondering, is it ethical to get another real estate agent to work together with the one we already hired? so in essence there will be 2 of them working together to sell our house.

if it is ethical, how do we go about it? i hope you can give me some insight. thanks.

YIKES!

In the last several years hubby and I have been investing, I honestly do not recall anyone discussing in having multiple RE agents in sellers' favor. Plus, I don't think it is legal or it's against the RE agents' rule.

To be honest, I do not think the RE agents would appreciate it. However, I do know that you can seek husband/wife RE agent team......

Nope! Only if it was an open listing, where you reserved the right to hire others. Look at your contract if it says exclusive then you're obligated until the expiration date!
