my 2k.. around here , i live in the styx, people usually settle for 1/2 of the apraized
value, and usually do way better if they advertize in an out of town paper.

I think PSBO is a typo. FSBO=For Sale By Owner. Realtors HATE them (steals their opportunity for a commission).

I don't know what the other one is?
Hey? Why is my computer prompting me if I would like to accept a cookie? Is it Oatmeal or Chocolate Chip?

The saga continues!
Went to sign the papers tonight (contract). The girl buying my house has a realtor representing her. I made it VERY CLEAR that I would not pay ANY commission from the get-go, but if the seller wanted to pay for representation, that was her buisness. (I think that is more like a broker type arrangement- check me if I am wrong) So right as I am about to sign, this realtor tries to pull a fast one and slip in an agreement for me to pay her 3%!!! WTF?!?
I shot the whole deal down immediately. That is unethical and just plain crooked. Then the realtor gets mad at ME, and tries to say I agreed to this. I told her if I wanted a realtor, I'd have hired one of my choice, so she leaves in a huff. Fine by me, though. I got two more offers from individuals to consider.
If anybody is a realtor out there (Ghostfleet), this is not to say that realtors are bad or dishonest. I think most people (realtors included) just want to make an honest buck. But man, I was steamed, and I will not deal with another realtor on this transaction, for sure.

You're right, the realtor was the buyers representative, not yours. Stick to your guns....

And now the latest installment....
Had coffee with a nice couple tonight, and cut a deal that nets me more dough than the one I walked away from, even without the realtor fees! This has worked out great, and after all that stress last night, I am downin' a few with the wife and gettin' naked to celebrate!

Hard work often pays off in the long run, but Lazyness always pays off now.
