WHY PAY “COOKIE CUTTER REALTY” A 6% COMMISSION?

I have been marketing and developing real estate for the past 35 years and can’t believe most home sellers are still paying ridiculous high commissions to traditional real real estate firms when they have options. WAKE UP AMERICA! The Internet has changed everything! The internet savvy seller(s) or buyer(s) are no longer hostage to an archaic agency commission based marketing system. The fact are, over 90% of all home buyers begin their search on-line! There are more than 5000 FREE public real estate sites providing direct access to your local MLS and countless ways to listing and selling property on the same MLS Realtors use without paying commission or up front fees! On the other hand, if your heart is set on paying tens of thousands of dollars for a sign in your front yard advertising Brand X Realty, (signs don’t sell homes, signs attract new clients for the Brokerage) can’t answer a few simple questions or show a prospective buyer your own home. Then by all means, be my guest!  After all, someone needs to contribute to those Cadillac Escalate payments and that flashy store front. After all, they need a way to get around town and a place to congregate while splitting up the take. Excuse me, I ment commissions!
