[quote=Anonymous]I just don't see how realtors are very helpful in the market we have right now. We can all search online for the limited number of listings out there. I know realtors will say they are helping you negotiate but I have bought a few homes and rarely do they give a lot of help figuring out what the place is really worth. They usually just go back and forth for you and lessen the awkwardness of talking to the person on the other side.  Their fees (especially here where housing prices are so high) are unjustified right now.

I agree that a lawyer is then necessary but I feel more comfortable with a lawyer than a real estate agent any day.

I think we would all be so much more successful if we just listed the homes at a reasonable price and the buyer lowered the price by most of the agent's fees. They'd sell the home quickly and could still add a few thousand to cover the lawyer's fees.

Still - that would mean you could accept at least 4% less (assuming you would have had 2 agents in a traditional deal) and sell the house quickly and easily.
