Default Buying a home in TV listed on VLS, Do I need a buyers agent?

My wife and I are looking to move to TV next Spring and with the changes to the way commission are paid to real estate agents I have a few questions.

1. If you buy a new home from the developer do you have to have or pay a buyer’s agent or a commission to the VLS agent that showed you the home?

2. If you find a pre-owned home on VLS and you go to an open house and want to put in a offer, do you have to have a buyers agent or can you submit an offer to the sellers agent and not use an agent at all?

My wife and I know where we want to live and we enjoy going to look at open house still we find one we love..I’m not sure I need an agent for any of that maybe just a real estate attorney to facilitate the purchase. Thoughts?

Thank you in advance.
