Why would a realtor refuse to list at a lower price? My realtor would have been thrilled to list competitively. What is that realtor’s motive? Realtors only get 1% of the 6% commission, so a $20K reduction in price would net about $200 less in her pocket. Is she trying to get that extra $200, or does she or a relative have a house in that neighborhood and doesn’t want the comps to go down?
