For the record, my realtor never said anything about me making a commitment or it would be gone. He NEVER pressured me at all, and in fact kept asking me if I was sure I wanted to buy a house.
What happened was we looked at a house and by the time we made a decision (an hour or so later) it was sold to someone else. There was no game being played by the realtor.
