Buyer using realtor

[Chris Harper]

Hello BP,

I negotiated a purchase price with a buyer on a property I have under contract. The buyer is finishing the process with a realtor. The realtor asked me to sign a contract prepared by him using a PA realtor association contract which lists me as a consultant paid by the seller. How would I assure I get paid at closing if I don't use my assignment contract? Would it be beneficial to have me paid by the buyer at closing as a consultant instead?

You control the deal? Use your contract or refuse to sell it.

You can use theirs and I'm sure its legit but if you control the property control the transaction.
