I had a listing agent who refused to pass my offer onto the homeowner. That listing agent was representing a competing buyer who had put in an lower offer.
I drove to the property and made my offer in person. I lived there for 7 years.

Use of the standard form (https://orforms.org/forms/) requires purchasing a license to the form, and licenses are only sold to licensed real estate agents and lawyers. I ended up buying the license to the form and a license for software required to fill out the form. (The website selling licenses didn't actually validate that you entered a valid state license id.)
It cost me a couple hundred bucks, but the seller accepted my offer. I doubt that the seller's agent gave the seller back the 2.5-3% that didn't have to be paid to a buyer's agent.
