That Bucket woman....

MD...just means Maryland; no, I'm not a Realtor; If I found the buyer on my own (relative, friend from work, etc) and they did not bring a real estate agent to the sale, then my listing agent would just get the contractually stated share of the commission and would do all the paperwork for the sale. So, on a 5% commission, normally it would split 2.5 each between listing and selling agent; if I brought my own buyer there is not selling agent and I bumped up my listing agent from 2.5 to 3% to compensate for the extra paperwork. Commissions in MD are 5 or 6% with 6% being more prevalent.

Tiz all for naught so far since neither the agent nor I have been able to find a buyer. Just a very slow market out there.
