Should I and can I fire my realtor?

The market is slow but I don’t see my realtor doing anything marketing-wise to make up for it. She refuses to spend money to market our house in other areas of the vicinity and says the MLS will bring a buyer. It’s been 40 days and no one has called about our house in 2 weeks. We requested that she put our home in local newspapers but she keeps advising against it. If we had activity on our house, I wouldn’t be concerned. But it’s been 40 days and I think we need to change our marketing plan.Our realtor is doing enough marketing, so what the heck are we paying her for? Does anyone have any suggestions? We are paying 2 mortgages now and need to have this house sold. It’s already at the right price too.

Unfortunately the contract has to run out first. Wait til the contract runs out and then try to do a private sale on your own and forget these high paid realtors.

    The real estate bubble has burst. Sorry. Your agent probably has a clause in your contract saying you can’t hire a new agent within 90 days of hiring her. Basically it is a "fair chance" clause that is fairly common (it is to protect her from a realtor approaching you and promising a sell). See if you can find that. As soon as time runs out get a new realtor.

    Yes fire her ASAP! Hire someone that will work hard for you! It’s absurd that your realtor is expecting commission for doing NOTHING! Good realtors will put your house in the map and work their butt offs to get your house sold. Fire her pronto and look for another realtor to sell your home…IT WILL cost more in commission, but you’ll get the results you expect.
