A buyer who feels comfortable w/ agent will talk & answer questions about their property requirements, size, location & pricing - property info sought by agent.
Here, the discussion has dramatically shifted from selling property to finding property, as described by buyer.
At some point, w/ this agent or another, buyer acquires confidence to involve themselves w/ a particular agent in the search. For the moment, they have an agent.
A commitment? Possibly, but this is not yet known to the agent. The agent lacks the solicitation by a thoughtful presentation of a written authorization - a buyer's listing agreement - to be entered into by the buyer before the agent starts the hunt.
