Realtor Update

Anyone out there ever tried to "extract" themselves from a realtor not living up to the standards set forth in a contract? It's kind of like a no win situation. There were some things about the buyer's of our house that our realtor failed to mention to us. Then the contract for them to buy the house fell through. We submitted a request in writing to be "unconditionally released" from our brokerage agreement" with the realtor selling our house. Now it feels a little tense as people are still looking at our house, since it has to remain under the current agreement until the top dog in the company "lets us go" or what have you from our contract. In the meantime, it is a little awkward dealing with our realtor. To make matters worse, someone vandalized the sign in our front yard. The part that was vandalized was our realtor's face, which now resembles Bill Gate's reflection in a mirror. *see Devil* I don't know who did it, but that could make the situation even more tense. This is really getting old.

The couple who was buying our house is now 'unreachable'. It looks as if the money they put down as a 'good faith fee' is going to be in limbo for a while. We could care less about it at the moment, we really just want the house sold for the price listed. I know God is taking care of us, it is just hard to let go of the illusion of control we think we have on the situation.
