I have sold and bought 3 homes in my life all without an agent. It’s not overly complicated as long as you do your research on what documents are needed. People get real estate agents because they are lazy. It’s their money though, and the stupidest thing of all is the commission % based upon a homes value even though they do the same amount of “work” on a 200k house they would do on a 500k house.

So that makes realtors “shitbags”?

Realtors work within the parameters they are given by NAR and the brokerages they are required to work under. Most are hard-working people trying to eek out a living and support their families.

Painting with that broad brush you wield is not only childish but insulting. And now you’ve moved on to insulting people who use realtors.

No one is forced to use a realtor. And no realtor can force anyone to list a home or buy a home. It’s a service. Some choose to use it, some don’t.
