Getting the seller to leave the agent
I have a question there's a piece of property that I want to do an option contract on but it's listed with an agent. The property has been on the market for over a year. Has anyone had success with getting the seller to cancel the listing contract and taking the option contract ? I'm willing to give the seller the 6% commission he was going to pay to the agent for the option contract. Advice and suggestions are welcomed !!!

IMHO this is the wrong approach.
Let face it if a seller is willing to cancel an agreement with another party for their benefit why would you think that they wouldn't do the same thing to you?
And IMHO its highly unethical for you to even have the conversation with them about them canceling their agreement.
