A seller on the other hand has a contract with an agent. They negotiate a commission and the funds for paying the stated commission are TAKEN OUT OF THE SELLER'S PROFIT.
A buyer could care less if an agent gets paid. He is not legally bound to pay an agent.THE SELLER IS! Therefore, all real estate agents represent the seller.

Being completely and utterly clueless, doesn't seem to stop folks who have a need to keep their fingers busy at a keyboard or a need to publicize their ignorance. There's always the "Block Poster" option available. I've found it to be a vital tool for tolerance on this board. Particularly regarding certain clueless posters, who don't seem daunted by constant reprimands and suspensions by the Moderators.
