[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: to clarify I’m not an erratic emotional first time home buyer. I have 11 rental units and successful RE transactions to which my loan officer attested to with selling agent. My offer was professionally written by an attorney with 60 years of experience. There were no contingencies in the offer besides financing and I would take the property as is. I closed my prior purchases unrepresented  just fine. 
The person who was forced on my as my “buyers agent” did literally nothing with the paperwork and didn’t find the house for me in the first place. I identified this  property for development using complex spreadsheets and paid $400 to architect for feasibility study of zoning regs before drafting an offer

It’s the shady nature of transaction and scam committed by the agents that scared me away. I would have absolutely bought the house directly but I couldn’t find the owner

I believe sellers DO need to stop offering buyers commission and let buyers contract agents themselves if they want[/quote]

The only people accusing you of being emotional are realtors. Everyone else sees that having a second parasitic realtor trying to get get their cut is problematic. [/quote]

Yes. The point here is that the second agent was imposed on the buyer completely artificially. It’s basically the selling agent and their friend you are dealing with, doubling the commission. They split it under the table. Basically, a kick off, totally illegal [/quote]

[b]Realtors pre-settlement: "no we aren't price fixing, why would you ever say that???"

Realtors post-settlement- "yeah I know what the settlement says, nobody is going to go along with that, here is the price which we have fixed"[/b][/quote]

It was a scam which got busted and some of them are still rying to scam buyers/sellers. Some of them needs to be behind bars.[/quote]

You sound unhinged and like you have a loose relationship with facts and reality. You are also prone to wild hyperbole and making inflammatory statements. [/quote]

Not pp but I'm so sick of realtors with their latest gaslighting: Buyers and sellers are unhinged! Overly emotional! Irrational! Unrealistic! You must pay TWO realtors commission to collude and rip you off for your own protection!!![/quote]
