If commissions are tacked on to a price tag for a home, how does that not increase the cost of purchase, or the comp price for a neighborhood? If a seller wants 400 K for a house and they charge 424 K for a house, the new comparison is 424 K. The increase would be 6% additional in “value” to satisfy the exorbitant amount charged by an agent.
