I don’t like fees any more than the next person. But there are different interest here. Plenty of home sellers are looking for discounts, rebates etc. I am not going to bag on them for doing so and if it is agreed to by the selling agent then good for the customer and bad for the agent. Likewise if a realator has a better system for selling a home and wants to ask for aaddional compensation then good for the seller and bad for the client.
Here is my question to you. If someone guaranteed to move you home in 10 days or pay you upfront full asking price for the home what is that worth to you. If they said 6% plus 1000$ fee, in this market I would probably pay. 2 year ago not a chance.
