Problem with Agents is they lie about their motivation.

They will say things like, “I get the highest price I can because it’s best for both of us” when really they want you to sell as quickly as possible for the bottom of your range.

Then they will brag about things not knowing it shows how shitty they are at their job.

They sold in 2 days at above list price! That’s how great I am as an agent!

Just means you priced the house too low and talked the seller into taking less than they really could get.

Freakonomics has studies to show how shady agents are.

When I sold my last house the commission was 4%…but I used the same agent when buying the next home
