The realtor showing the open house on a resale is probably the realtor who did the listing, so they would love to sell to you because they would not have to split the commission.
I just don't see why you need a realtor to hold your hand.

Not all homes have open houses, some buyers may not be here at the time when there are open houses. If you are working with an agent and they know exactly what you want as soon as something that fits comes on the market they can get you in quickly. That is why you need an agent, not to hold your hand but to find what you want .
