[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agent here.   Last weekend was the first weekend the commission change became real for agents.  I am offering 1% to buyer agents on listings and any additional can be paid by the buyer or negotiated with the seller.

In three multiple offer situations, the three agents who wanted only the 1% commission got the deal. The offers were similar and the sellers took the offers that netted the must to them.   Agents were angry but I told them that our industry had done it to them.   If they want to succeed, they have to prove their worth to buyers and get paid by buyers.  [/quote]

I think agents, be it on the buyer or seller side, are extremely useless and have no value, especially in a market like ours (houses sell themselves, effectively). They are, effectively (especially in this country given high commissions) leeches on society. So you saying that about other agents is ironic af.

Out of curiosity, if you offered 1% how much did you take? The 2.5 or were you greedy and took 4.[/quote]
