Amy didn’t you post about the Fisherman house here on Piggington before? I could swear you did and I believe I had posted the listing history on this home so it should not be a surprise about the previous pricing.
Gun Doctor – When MLS listings are emailed out to clients the confidential remarks are distilled. It always amazes me that buyers do not query their realtors immediately about what commission they will get when they represent them as a buyer. Yes that will always be on the HUD at closing but if I were a buyer I would want to know up front if no more then for curiosity. Anyways there is no harm in any buyer simply asking their realtor what the cbb is for the home they want to make an offer on.
Ren – I have said it before and will say it again… friends and family man… It is staggering what people will put up with when the realtor is a friend, in law, or other relation. The more agents a broker has, the larger the web.
Amy – Aside from common sense on your part, why would you expect your agent to tell you about the 10k bonus? Are you getting a rebate from him/her that is based on the total commission they get? So yes, 3% of 1.4M + 10k is 52K. Not bad for the brokerage representing you and they may have been a bit embarrassed to let you know that. I don’t believe it is a material fact though.
