A lot of times, the seller agent simply doesn’t care that you don’t have an agent. Like if you go to a new home development, even without an agent, you’re not going to get any discounts.
The seller already has a contract to pay the agent a certain percentage and doesn’t care you don’t have an agent with you since their fee is set already.
If you want a cheaper price, the seller’s agent can be a dual agent, but they may not want the hassle with dealing with you I’ve notice since if priced right, they can sell it pretty easily already. If priced wrong, the property is overpriced…
If you do a lot of your own legwork, you may want to consider the discount side where you get less service, but may save a little bit…
