Hi SD Realtor,
Yes, I had posted on here about the house before, and it was through you that I found it had been on the market for more than a year (relisted several times). I did not know it had been listed at a lower price though.
I would expect my realtor to tell me about the additional bonus as I see it as an added expense on my part – it’s an additional $10k that the seller will be adding on to what they want to get. Since my agent is representing me, as a seller, I think that is information that should be shared with me,and yes, I think a rebate would be appropriate in that situation.
Although I have owned four houses in three states and had my real estate license a long time ago when I lived in VT, I am learning more from this site than all those experiences put together. When we are ready to buy, we will have a lot of questions & good information to base our decisions on.
