What I hate about these used house salespeople is how they come across as wanting to help you and their great NAR based ethics.

Please note that I did not use any of the Patrick.net forbidden words

Thank you for watching the video I obviously did not do a good job explaining how a buyers agent gets paid. The seller pays the listing broker the listing broker pays the buyers broker. The buyers agents fiduciary responsibility and loyalty is ONLY with the buyer. The Jones Team has represented many Doctors Lawyers and one Judge over the years. All these highly intelligent people understand the importance of having a Realtor that is an expert represent their best interest in buying a home

Let me ask you, where does the seller typically get the money to pay the listing broker? From escrow. Where does the money in escrow come from? From either the buyer's down payment, or the buyer's loan. After all the transaction costs, and prior liens are paid out of escrow, what is left is the seller's profit. If the seller didn't have to pay to listing broker the monopoly price of 6%, then the seller could lower the selling price accordingly. The 6% fees just raise all housing prices by 6%. This higher cost is passed on to the buyer in the form of higher down payment and higher loan amount. So for each $100k increment, at 20% down, the buyer pays an extra $1200 down and an extra $21.55/mo (3.5% 30yr FRM), for this free real estate service! On a $500k house this translates to $6k out of pocket (20% of 30k commission) and $107.75/mo. for the next thirty years (24k amortized over 30yrs)! What a deal!

I actually want to hear what you have to say when it's constructive and civil, but comments like these have me hovering over the ignore link. You would be much more effective in getting your point across if you kept it a bit more on even keel.

All these assholes need to be re-classified as four-season open game, available for hunt by licensed terrestrial hunter or helicopter-carried licensed hunter. Dang, this would have been a great segment for Mutual of Omaha's 'Wild Kingdom'.

How many times have you heard the exact same thing from a realtard: 'i would never let a client buy something which I didn't believe in...'

Honestly, I don't think in NAR school they even teach them to listen to their clients. They just keep mumbling: sell, sell, sell and location, location, location.

He said "i would never let a client buy something which I didn't believe in" My Liar Realtor and Bullshitter alarms all just went off at the same time. Is he a Realtor?

But when buyers and sellers don't use a Realtor the buyer thinks they should save the 6% since the seller isn't paying a Realtor, and the seller thinks they deserve the 6% since they're doing all the marketing and need the extra money which is why they didn't hire a Realtor in the first place!
