<prompt> Human: This is my first time selling a home, and I was negotiating with my current room mate about selling to him. We were a little bit far apart, so I decided to sign a listing agreement with a realtor. Now, 2 days later, my room mate has agreed to the price I wanted to sell to him for. Can I explain this to the realtor and get out of my agreement, or will I be on the hook for paying commission even though they have not done anything?  <response>: I dont know the answer, but you could always tell your roommate the price is now 6 higher to cover the fees. Its not your fault he slept on the deal, and you still want to net the same price, so why not?
