Can I cancel my listing agreement if my real estate agent is not doing a good job?

I signed an exclusive right to sell contract a month ago, but my agent has not hosted any open houses or run the digital ads they promised. The house is barely getting any showings. I am frustrated and want to know how difficult it is to break a contract and find a new realtor.

Can I switch mortgage lenders after I've already been pre-approved?

I got pre-approved with my local credit union a few weeks ago, but now another lender is offering a much better interest rate. We haven't found a house yet, so I'm not locked into a specific property. Will starting a new application with this second lender hurt my credit score, or is it normal to shop around at this stage?

What is the difference between a mortgage broker and going directly to a bank?

My husband and I are first-time homebuyers looking around Austin. We keep hearing conflicting advice from family members about where to get our loan. Some say we should just use the bank where we have our checking accounts, while others highly recommend finding an independent broker to shop rates for us. Does one option usually have lower closing costs or faster processing times?

Agent won't show me houses without preapproval?

I'm not sure if I even want to move to the suburbs from the city. I just want to get a feel for the houses and see if i could live there. The agent I talked to said he wouldn't show me any houses without preapproval. i get he doesn't want to waste his time if i can't afford the house. but i also don't want to waste my time on preapproval if i might not even move. Do I have to have preapproval to see a house?

How do I make my home look brighter?

I have had a few showings and the feedback my agent is passing on to mee is that a lot of the people think that my home is too dark. We are south facing and we also have a big porch in the back that blocks the light to the main area. What can I do to help add more light without a huge renovation adding windows and stuff?
