RE agents


I have a home that me and my wife live in we are separated now and selling the house we agreed in lowering the price of the house down ($10,000) now I find out that the RE agent and my ex-wife have been in contact with each other and had lowered the price of the house down another $20,000 for a total $30,000 without my consent or any authorization form to fill out.

Is that legal, isn't it suppose to be both parties involved if there is a change of any monies.

**A: all owners on title need to sign the broker's listing agreement and any subsequent changes to the contract ie. price, term etc.

**A: then send a certified rrr letter to the principal broker explaining your situation and disagreement with the lower list price.
