Question about Changing Real Estate Agents

[Jared Siraco]

I am having trouble finding out if I am obligated to purchase a property through an agent that showed me it back in April. I signed with her in March, for 1 Month as a trial, since then I changed agents. I dropped her because she was merely interested in the commission not my best interest and she lacked the knowledge I was looking for.

Is there a law that dictates I am obligated to buy a property with the real estate agent that initially showed me a property during a "X" month period?

...I live in Connecticut.

Thanks

The listing agent will probably have a record of that prior agent's involvement, and that the prior agent might be able to establish "procuring cause".
