A quick tip for homebuyers/sellers to save on realtor fees. Contact the title company and they'll gladly tell you what you need to do to close the loan. Maybe not ASAP, but they are more vested in you doing the busy work and doing it right than they are the worthless realtors. Half the time realtors in my state wouldn't even sign the offer to purchase and include their info even though it's illegal and they can lose their license.
So given the buyer's agent fees come out of the sale price (which already reflects that commission), you're not really saving anything are you?
For the sellers, maybe, but I don't think I'd be at all comfortable selling a home without a (good) agent.
I'll 100% agree with you that most realtors are bad. The good ones are gold though.
