My wife's an agent as well. While you think the concern is the commission it's not it's a 2 way street. The clients are happy he fetched them 70k more and yes he's rewarded for that. If there was a flat rate for realtors per house. He would be convincing his clients to take day 1 offer and close the deal as quick as possible and move on to the next sale. The commission is setup to help both the seller and the agent to do his very best and maximize the value of his clients home. Now if you think it's easy money why not try being an agent. There's alot of work involved and most people think they take 2.5% clean home. That's not the case every office operates differently. Out of the 2.5% the her office takes a 30% cut. Whatever is left over she needs to set aside some for taxes at the end of the year which is not deducted on commission. There are yearly realtor license fees as well, car wear and tear driving clients around and gas.
