Also on the 2nd page of the list agreement it states "DISCLOSURE OF BROKERAGE RELATIONSHIP" THIS IS NOT A CONTRACT; IT DOES NOTCREATE AN OBLIGATION".

Refuse,
You can double check bbb again and just put the name of the company and if you don't see the name of the one that you saw today,that means they are not a member of BBB and the ones in VA they are not a member either but someone called BBB to check that company that's why they are showing in their listings. So if you can not find them don't use them.
I've checked my Listing Agreement and Contract with my agent and I have 28 pages that he faxed to me that I have signed and faxed back to him because we're 70 miles away from him. My listing agreement shows same Disclosure Real Estate Agency Relationship but none says THIS IS NOT A CONTRACT; IT DOES NOT CREATE AN OBLIGATION.
Actually my agent has Century 21 Seller Service Pledge stating in detail 21 things they will do to make sure that my house is sold, client acknowledgement, listing agreement, civil codes of real estate,seller's affidavit and property disclosures, the fees, the price, when the listing expired, but none says THIS IS NOT A CONTRACT, IT DOES NOT CREATE AN OBLIGATION. This statement alone will give me a RED Flag.
I know you want to do the right thing and you want to sell the house as soon as possible. But please be careful hiring real estate agents most especially giving money for the services that he has not yet earned. Even a new hire employee has to work 3 weeks before he gets paid a 1 week check.
The first thing you do you already did by putting a stop on the cancel check. Check bbb search for real estate agents near you, then call her Monday, if she doesn't talk to you, talk to her Manager, tell her that you want your check back and so on. I hope and pray that everything will work out for your good and your husband.
God bless.
Faith
