Terminating contract with agent before listing (seller)

What is the typical outcome when asking to terminate the agreement with our real estate agent (we are the sellers)?

The property is set to go on the market in a week. There are a few vendors coming out next week to clean and stage. The relationship with our agent has turned contentious and we would prefer to work with someone else.

I looked at the termination clause in our contract and it is vague (they "may" have the right to recoup costs, for instance). We are willing to continue to use the vendors for staging and cleaning (we already paid them, so the current agent doesn't need to spend time canceling those appointments. Only the photographer would be canceled). But I realize they did spend time coming to view our place and getting those vendors hired. We already have an agent we'd be interested in working with instead. Just wondering what to expect when I approach our current agent about this.

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

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...
