Buyers agency/reo property

I emailed the listing agent of a bank owned today to request a showing. I do not yet have an agent I am working with. The listing agent forwarded me to a buyers agent at the same office. After speaking with him, he said he would not show me this property w/I an agency agreement so I don't waste his time. I absolutely understand that, I don't want to waste his time but I also don't want my time wasted stuck with an agent who to begin with isn't showing any courtesy show a house his office is listing. What should I do? I feel like to begin with I shouldn't but with someone who is so close to the listing agent, but does that even matter with a bank owned? If anyone has recommendations for an agent who works with investors in the Seattle/tacoma are that would be great.
