Offers outside ESA?

Hey guys, need some advice. I leased my property with an agent, couple of months later I decided to sell it with same agent. Agent advised me to vacate the property so it can be ready for viewing and selling, I agreed. ESA expired and 30 days grace period expired too and property didn't sell. I told agent to put it back on lease. He said he will be he didn't and kept doing open houses. 5 months later agent left his firm and principal partner called me and said he is putting it back on rent. Property is onleaee for 4 months now and another estate agency approached me and I foolishly signed ESA with them without much consideration. I told my agent I have signed ESA with another agent and it would be better if you transfer lease authority to them so they can co-ordinate with tenants directly. I also told him to remove all the listings. He said he has got a buyer and offer is coming same evening. It didn't. The new estate agency is constantly trying to get authority transferred but he is not responding to them. He hasn't removed the listing either. Now he has brought me an offer in writing which looks good to me but I am not sure what to do here. ESA is with another agent, of course both want commission. I have to pay either way. What are my options here?

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
