And by that I mean your asking price plus 2-3% more for the buyer's agent paid out of his/her own pocket. I suspect that your house will sit for quite awhile if the asking is competitive,
Now, since TV has a large portion of retirees with plenty of cash from the sale of their prior house, you might get one. .
good luck with that strategy if you actually want to sell.

I don't see it that way at all. When I sell a house, I am willing to pay a commission to a broker who represents me, and to sign a listing contract for a specific price. I expect any agent who shows the house to be working for me, not the buyer. I am paying for their sales experience and skills. If a buyer wants to be represented by an agent, that is fine, but don't ask me to pay for the buyer's agent. If a buyer's agent cannot provide any value that the buyer is willing to pay for, then they shouldn't be in business.
