Is it illegal for a real estate agent to enter your home without permission?

This is a case where the details really, really matter.
Being a real estate agent does not grant you immunity from any statutes against breaking and entering.
However, if you (or the person who actually owns the property you're living in) has contracted with a real estate agent to sell the place, then that contract generally gives them and other real estate agents permission to enter it as required to show it to prospective buyers, and they don't need to obtain specificpermission to enter, because they already have blanketpermission. Most of the time they will call ahead as a courtesy (and because they'd prefer to show the place empty), but this usually isn't actually required.
That doesn't mean they can just drop by anytime and hang out there, of course. But the bottom line is that unless the agent is literally breaking in, what they're doing is most likely perfectly legal.

Can a sellers real estate agent tell the buyers agent the exact price the buyer will accept less than the listing price?
They can, but only if their principal (the seller) has given them express permission to do so. If they do this without the seller's permission it is a breach of the agent's duties to his/her principal. If this happened in the US the seller should notify the Real Estate Commission in their state and file a complaint against their agent. This is extremely unethical.

How is a real estate broker different from a real estate agent in California?
A real estate "agent" is licensed to practice real estate, but only under the direct supervision of a broker. Without a broker to oversee their activities and take responsibility for their actions a real estate agent is not allowed to practice. There is a trick of language here though, and it has to do with Agency Law. By law, an agent is a person who acts on behalf of someone else. A real estate broker is also called a real estate agent. This is because they are acting as an agent for the buyer or seller in a transaction. So the broker has the legal title of "broker" generally and the title of agent in relation to his or her client. A real estate agent working under a broker is an agent only to the broker, the broker is agent to the client.
