I guess you didn't understand what "I didn't say it's a perfect comparison" means.


It was not just an imperfect comparison it was so wrong it was not worth mentioning. If literally not a single realtor would expect to be paid in that situation why even make the comparison? That's as good as saying that you moved to a different state so you didn't need them anymore.

We can agree to disagree on this, that's fine. You'd rather save the money on the first transaction and risk future business down the road. I have no issues with that. I am saying the opposite in that spending the money now could easily be a good investment down the road when looking to sell, buy the next home, etc.

Well, they shouldn't expect to be paid if they don't find the house and don't do any of the closing work, so it seems pretty apt.

It's not, but OK.

What future business? I don't need one realtor more than another. It's not exactly a limited field.

Why, is there only one realtor that I'm allowed to do business with over the course of my life?
