Because she ain't making jack now.

I have gotten agents to lower their rates many times to get a deal done. Both on the buyer and seller side. That rate is completely negotiable.

Would you rather 3% of $0 or 2% of $200,000?


I am assuming you know this but some might not know. 6% is their commission rate generally the rule is 3% to buyer's agent and 3% to the seller's agent. I am just asking her to give up a point/percent to make the deal happen. Maybe if a buyers agent see's they are giving 4% at that house more clients will be pushed towards that house.
