A: Depends on the language of the contract - but normally there will be a provision for notice of termination of agreement. Contact an attorney

A: This will depend on your contract language with the Agent/ Broker. Some contracts provide a means to terminate- but if the home sales in the next 90 days the Agent/ Broker still gets the same commission. Look at the terms of your agreement.
