I don't agree that money paid to a real estate agent is given away. I expect the agent to earn the commission by using their marketing plan to get a higher price in less time for the house. When buying a house, I won't even look at FSBOs because they are usually overpriced and it is too much of a hassle to deal with most FSBO sellers.
