Margaretmattson-
Yes, because I believe they will save or gain me more than that.

However, how do you see this unfolding? Are the sellers going to reduce prices to account for the reductions in commissions? Or the same thing for listing agents? How does anybody really gain? Yes, you can use the listing agent but they owe 100% loyalty to the Seller, not you.

It is like going to trial and using the opponent's attorney. If you had seen all the losses and mistakes that I have, you would feel different. To your good fortune you have only seen no problem deals but all you need is one bad deal to lose big $$$. Under your theory why not drop your insurance, too.

I once saw a closing agent embezzle $4,000,000 of my client's money. I got it back for them but if I had not been their agent, I would not have even tried.
