REAL ESTATE BROKER
We are looking to go full time in the next 5-10 years and the first step toward that is moving closer to the grandchildren... We have a real estate agent right now that is doing practically nothing...

D all of the above.
I only sign a contract for 60 days max. That way I can see if they are really working to sell my house.
Most just grab all the 'listings' they can and do nothing.
That way they don't pay for any advertising, they don't have to bother with showings, and just sit and wait for some other agent to show it off MLS. Its' a numbers game for them.
That all said. Go to the BROKER of this real estate office. Express with facts that your agent is not acting in a professional manor and is doing nothing to promote the sale of your home.
Did your agent set up an agent walk thru?
Did your agent advertise?
Has your agent showed your house to anyone yet?
etc etc.
Most brokers will let you out of the contract if you express how unhappy you are with the agents performance.
OR
Tell them you have decided to take it off the market. But READ the small print on cancellation. Most will just let your go though they don't need the hassle of going to court and maybe a non-performance issue coming up that would cause the agent to loose her license.
good luck.
Remember on the next go around check 60 days. They will squawk about it but tell them if they are doing a good job it shouldn't be a problem for them and that you will renew it every 60 days!......(IF they get off their duff and are working for you and their commission!"):B
Ohhh this brings back the memories of when I sold mine to go full time!!:R
