I think about that lesson a lot with things like polenta. Sure, you can load it with milk (and then, often, finish it with butter and tons of cheese). It will taste good, but it'll also leave you feeling pretty gross afterward.
A typical estate agent's fee could total around Â£7,680 after VAT, in London the average House price is approximately Â£350,000 which could equate to commission as high as Â£16,800. Add to this a solicitor's conveyancing fees, which average around Â£1,000.
*For QLD the agent fee % figure is ignored as in QLD fees are regulated to a maximum of 5% on the first $18,000 of sale price and 2.5% on balance. This is what the majority of real estate agents charge. The calculation used is $900 (5% of $18,000) plus 2.5% of excess over $18,000 (QLD rates as at 1 November 2014).
