Not sure if I mentioned, but the house we were interested in sold. Asking $350 and sold for $335.
Agents are salespeople, so there is good and bad.
When you buy/sell you need a Lawyer anyway, so skip the commissions and pay the extra $$ to have everything covered. You will still be $$ ahead AND none of the backdoor cheating bs that goes on. And it does.
House down the street about 4 houses has been for sale almost 6 months now...started at $700k, lowered to 6 and still crickets. Agents have $25M properties listed lol.
