Involving our sort-of Buyer's Agent after viewing a unit on our own?

So my wife and I have been looking around for a new home in New Jersey for the past two months. We're not quite sure how the whole buyer's/seller's agent thing works (especially in Jersey), so we could use some advice.

A few weeks ago we met an agent whom we seemed to get along well with at an open house, and agreed to see some listings with him. About a week after first meeting him we saw an apartment without him that we'd already wanted to look at. Over the past 2 weekends we've seen a number of options with him, and he's done a solid job.

Today we went with him for a second look at our top picks out of his suggestions and all of them had some issue or another that made us lean towards pursuing other options. We also saw the unit from earlier without him for a second time. We're leaning toward making an offer on it, but we don't want to leave him out in the lurch and feel like we wasted his time, since he did give us useful advice, and we'd also be cool having him work with us to make an offer, etc.

We didn't sign anything with him, but we don't want to be unfair to either realtor and we're not sure what the etiquette around this is given that we've seen this unit twice now with only the seller's agent. Any suggestions?

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
