I don't see why we must've expensive realtors. To open locks? There are automatic locks and home cameras for safe and convenient tours.

Realtor commissions should be flat charges. May be $25-100/hr?[/quote]

People have been saying this my whole life and yet they’re no closer to getting their way/FSBO still has a major stigma. But maybe this thread will finally be the straw that breaks the industry’s back :roll:[/quote]

Actually, plenty of people do it. Not necessarily true FSBO, but with a flat fee agent that costs maybe $1K or $2K (they still usually offer 2.5% to the buyer's agent).  There are flat fee agents out there, and they have even been recommended on this board. I see the names of those flat fee agents pop up all the times in listings, including on houses around $2 million. Lots of people just want the hand holding that they think will come with using a full service agent.[/quote]
OP seems to have wanted handholding and not gotten it. Listing agents don’t usually show up for every buyer showing, for instance.[/quote]
