-Some- realtors will. The best ones won't; they know they're offering you more than Zillow. When I bought, our realtor was constantly hounding the seller's realtor and our own financing company to move the process forward, as well as proactively reaching out to answer our questions and in general help us feel good about the process. She also returned texts and calls promptly, and she had an arrangement with an extremely good independent home inspector, plus pretty much every kind of contractor we could need for improvements; everyone she put us in touch with was amazing. She didn't ask for exclusivity, and she absolutely didn't need it.

Meanwhile in the past when we were looking, a mediocre one tried to get us to sign an exclusivity deal that we'd agree to use him until we chose to cancel (no stipulations there at least, though legally I don't know if he could have, but still, into perpetuity unless we canceled) for -any house in the entire state-.
