The buyers agent isn't going to do anything but try and convince you to offer asking. Of course they will also know "the best" lender. They may also tell you the property will 2x in value in no time.
Commission is negotiable I would find an agent that would buy me $3000 gift card at close.

I lay the numbers on the table for my buyers, it’s completely up to them to make an offer. Usually it’s not asking. If I know it’s going to be competitive, I simply tell them to make an offer they are comfortable with if they lose the house. Every situation is also different, I’ve been able to win in multiple offer situations as the non-high bid, but structured the contract attractive enough for the sellers to take.

I have 3 or 4 lenders I trust that I’ll send clients to, but in no way are they obligated to use them, nor do I benefit if they do.

No reputable agent is telling anyone that. I’ll never give out “investment advice”.
