[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assuming some super agent COULD get an extra $25k (which is rather dubious honestly), but let's roll with it for the sake of argument..

Say the odds of getting a "really good agent" are 1 in 10. That's 10% (odds might be lower in reality, but what the heck, we'll round up). So out of "population" of 10 people, 1 person saves 25,000 with said super agent while 9 people save nothing (or 2500 collectively over 10 people), while with the guaranteed discount each person saves $10k, and the group collectively saves 100k.

For all but the mathematically challenged, the choice should be obvious. Of course, a lot of people play the lottery, so obviously a vast number of people aren't the sharpest of folks. :p[/quote]

You must think all Redfin agents are superior, then. By your reasoning, the odds of getting a competent Redfin agent are 1 in 10 as well.

A good agent is a good agent. The brokerage and business model it follows is immaterial, and obsessing over whether you get some commission rebated instead of what price you'll negotiate is like buying a car based on a monthly payment that fits your budget.[/quote]

I'm not a realtor. As for marketing, well, pro-tip: If you're going to choose a stupid meme like the one you chose to make a point about marketing, perhaps choose one that knows the difference between "your" and "you're."[/quote]
