[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Great feedback. Thanks. Can you just negotiate to get commission back from a realtor? So if we see say less than five houses get half the commission as a rebate. An do a scale so that if we do end up taking up a ton o time they get full commission. I we do deal quickly they get less. Anyone tried this?[/quote]

Yes--we did this. And it worked out GREAT. We worked with an agent from a 'known' company and all she had to do was get permission from the main broker.

You should know thatagents  don' really like working with Redfin agemts. so if you are looking in a competitive market where there are multiple offers using a Redfin agent does hurt your chances of getting the house. And on the flip side, other agents might not want to show your house to their clients if they see its a redfin agent. however, in this day and age with most folks using redfin and frankly mls to find their houses, its not really up to the agent anyway as to which houses to show :)

but you should know that you can find agents who will negotiate their commisson with you (but you do have to give on some of the premium services--i.e. you may not get the glossy brochure or the open house every weekend type thign. but you will get standard service.

Question, since you're a realtor-why don't you like working with Redfin agents?[/quote]
