They're useless now IMO.

I've been house shopping, and the house I'm buying I had to find myself. The 3 realtors I had didn't do anything I couldn't do myself.

I guess they could be useful if you were buying a house far from where you lived, but for the most part all I see is them driving up the market price 30%

I'd rather you knock 20% off the price of the house and cut them out. I pay 20% less, you make 10% more. It's perfect.

What agents are making 30% and 20% on houses? I need to move there.

Standard is 6% but that has really dropped to about 5% over the years.
