This is a question that really boils my blood, so I’m going to have to try and tone down the venom that might otherwise spew here. The simple answer is no. Instead of hiring more than one Realtor®, how about you interview a few Realtors® to see if they’re the right match for you? That might satisfy your curiosity of what’s out there.

The truth is, all Realtors® – when you call them – will look up the MLS to find you a property that matches the criteria you selected. Unless they have a listing or their company has a listing that matches your criteria, they’re consulting the MLS. Even if they do have a listing that they think you might be interested in, the other Realtors® also have access to that same listing, thanks to the MLS.

The only thing you’re assuring by hiring more than one Realtor® is making sure that one of them (or more) is not getting paid for the work they’re doing for you. Since Realtors® work purely on commission fees, they don’t get paid unless you buy a house with them. And why would you want to be as heartless as put someone to work and then not pay them?
