Not as much as a listing with an MLS agent. Remember the Villages Real Estate sales agents are representing the seller not you. An MLS agent can work as a buyer's agent representing "you the buyer" not the seller. So their goal is the best price they can get for you. And believe me as a former REALTOR the difference in commission is not that great if they get you a better price. But if a Village sales agent gets top dollar for the seller that gets them more referrals. So "buyer beware"!
