Well it’s really simple, the selling buyers agent needs to get a commission agreement from any buyer, and include a “fee”
I don’t see anyone wanting to pay a fee to an agent. Now what I do see is companies like Zillow taking over the market of selling homes and marketing themselves to buyers agents who will show homes for a fee they dictate. I predicted this would happen years ago. Altisource back in the last recession had a selling site and a closing company plus it used in-house contracts electronically.
All I see is that expanding.. no one will take buyers out for nothing.
