If the realtor I was working with wasn't working in my best interest and I didn't feel he/she was actively looking for what I wanted ..... I'd fire them! - and if there was a contract, I'd be reading the fine print - surely you have an out.

We were looking in this area (Portage Wisconsin) a few years ago and the realtor's operated the same way, which is that they required a "contract" so there is nothing unusual about it.
