We listed our home in northern Vermont with a real estate agent in Autumn 2006. The advice given to us was “It’s late in the year and things are moving slow.

So we agreed and withdrew our listing after the agent sponsored an open house and only one couple visited.
If You are Tired of Outrageous Real Estate Commissions… Let’s Dispel the FSBO Myth.
The real estate market is one of the most complex markets in the entire world because the prices keep modifying every single day. Although most things change, one stagnant aspect of the real estate market is that the real estate agents are always trying to rip you off. It is a known fact that in the United States at least, real estate agents are demanding 6 percent commission. When you think of it, 6 percent isn’t that much but if you take into consideration that the average price for a house is around 313,000 dollars which means that the real estate agents gets almost 19,000 dollars, I’m sure you are looking for some other way to sell your house, without an agent.
