[quote=Steve][quote=Anonymous]If my realtor fails to sell my house I'm going to de-list, wait a while, then post as a Make Me Move (using pictures other than the one my realtor took).  I'll think put an asking price 6% less than it currently is and say "buyer's agent welcome: add buyer's agent commission to offer price."  Has anyone done this?[/quote]

You're probably better off leaving the price as is or only dropping 3% since buyers are programmed by agents to believe that sellers pay all of the commission.

You can also note that the price is $x lower without agents but the fact is that most people are represented thanks in part to what I mentioned above. If you don't offer commissions, buyer agents will may steer their clients away from your property since you may be keeping them from a pay check. If you lived in a hot area none of this would matter, but then again, you also wouldn't be worrying about de-listing.

If you choose to list with a phone number, use a Google Voice number so you can screen and easily block calls without fear of endless harassment. If you are harassed, you can just press "4" and Google gives out an audible alert saying, "This phone call is now being recorded."

Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving![/quote]
