The easiest way out is to sit down with the real estate brokerage the realtor works for and discuss breaking the agreement. Many reputable brokerages who wish to keep a favorable relationship with your business will agree to peaceful contract termination.
Contracts can only be cancelled with the mutual consent of the parties. In BC, REALTORS® use standard form real estate contracts.
You can go to the broker and explain what's been going on and indicate that you will not work with this agent anymore and you need to be released from the contract immediately. If that doesn't work you can have a lawyer send a letter to that effect and that will likely work.
If you wish to end the agreement, you must give written notice. Check your agreement to see how much notice you need to give. If you are not happy with an agent's services, it is important to properly end your agreement with them before signing up with another agent.
The 14 day cooling off period During the first 14 days after you have entered the contract you have the right to leave the contract without incurring a penalty.
If the agency agreement provides that the agency may be terminated upon either party serving on the other written notice of a specified duration, for example, three months' written notice, either party may terminate the agency agreement by serving the required notice on the other party.
