Some people seem to think that a lower commission means that they will get more money for their house. If that is how you think, then you should sell the house yourself. If a salesperson cannot get you more net income from your house, regardless of the commission, then you shouldn't hire them. There are two sides to the equation, the commission and the income you receive. A good salesperson should be worth more money to you than what you pay them in commission.
