For instance if you have a buyer looking for a $250k house...You're scrolling through the MLS and see two very similar homes for $250k One is the OPs with a 4% total commission (2% to you the selling agent) Vs. the other home which has a standard 6% commission (3% to you the selling agent). Which home do you think realtors are going to push their buyers towards?



In my experience in that situation listing agent is taking 1 and selling agent is taking 3. Otherwise like you said some agents may not be as favorable to your listing as others.

My point is if that house will sell in hours not days and you have the potential of landing an unrepresented buyer and actually taking all 4% of total compensation your brokerage is handcuffing you by its policy.
