So true. Agents work hard and lots of time for free.

I’m surprised that you actually need to ask this question.

The agents that work for the Properties of the Villages are not Realtors, are not members of the MLS and are not required to adhere to the guidelines of NAR. They are not required to get buyer broker agreements signed and do not work under the same compensation agreements as Realtors.

I was a Realtor for 41 years in Omaha, NE. When working with a buyer I did the best I could for that buyer. When working with a seller I did the best I could for that seller. When I acted as a dual agent, I showed both the buyer and the seller the same comps that were available and helped each come to a conclusion that they felt comfortable and pleased with. I rarely had any conflicts as I was always completely straight with all parties. Best of luck to you. (So sorry, I forgot to add that I think you should pick only one to work with as long as you feel/think they are working for YOU).

With the new NAR laws you have to sign with an agent BEFORE looking at any houses. Did you sign with one? If not, sounds like they are both in violation.

I know these homes go so fast, part of me thinks that having two tries to get a new release migh be better than one - but then, I don't want to break any rules. What would you recommend in this situation?

NAR is the National Association of Realtors. The Properties of The Villages company is not a member of the NAR and is not required to comply with the NAR rules (not laws). VLS agents are not Realtors. There is no violation.

Cut one loose or both? Naturally they going push to new build.

IMO buyer owes nothing to selling agent or any agent they work for seller (in this case the builder) sure have all these fancy wording, but in end all about money.

You should stay with your original agent. They can sell you all the same homes.

It’s not law, it’s an agreement.
It applies to NAR/MLS. Does not apply to VLS reps selling a new home.
