I put an offer on a home I was interested in for 10% lower then offer price
I told my agent what the max I would probably want to pay for it
When I spoke with her she apparently told the sellers agent this price and then they gave a counter offer at around 10k higher then my max price
Is this normal? I was actually hoping to not pay that price at all and i'm not even sure if it is worth it
For now i'm just sticking with my original offer and a bit ticked off that my agent told the sellers agent this information. Should I go with a new agent due to this issue?

What makes you think she told them?
You've signed a contract with your agent. What does it say about cancellation?
ok so how do I do that in a nice way (fire her) and 2 what should I do about the home I currently have the offer on? I do like it alot but after doing more research on the comps I don't think I want to move too much from my initial offer, considering the seller now knows what I want to pay at max should I just walk away from this house?
Before I made the offer she asked me to sign a buyers agent contract as part of the paperwork but I declined to sign it because I didnt want to be locked in to her services if something like this happened, I didn't know her well enough yet but she was the one who happened to show me this house and I really liked the house
