There is no such thing as a "realtor". It is "REALTORĀ®" (a Registered Trademark), who are legally & ethically bound to present any offer to a Seller and in 40 years in and around the real estate industry, I've yet to see a Broker not present an Offer to Purchase, to the Seller or their Broker.
If it was a VLS Agent, the Broker they are working under, is still required by Florida Law, to present the Offer. When selling pre-owned homes in Florida, VLS is bound by the exact same laws as an MLS Broker. It's only when selling the Developers own inventory, they have some discretion as to how they handle the sales process.

What is the documentation under Florida law (which I am not familiar with) that gives proof the offer was presented ? Must be something in writing like I suggested.
