In my experience, my realtor was also the owner/ broker of her company. She lowered her commission based on the fact she was also the broker. If another realtor/ sales associate sold the listing, that sales agent would still get her normal share of the commission. Also, the agent may lower their commission if you buy another house from them while/after your current house is sold. All other fees are negotiable as to whether seller or buyer pays what fees. Question- if one uses The Villages to sell their house, but decide to take the house OFF THE MARKET, is the seller still responsible for paying all expenses accrued?
