Question on agent commission for buyers side

[Andy Sabisch]

Quick question . . . . looked at a property listed around $75,000.  The agent we contacted that we have used on other properties (which were over $100,000) is saying that we as buyers would need to pay the difference between 3% of the purchase price and $3,000 which is about $800.  The agent works for EXP and says this is normal.  We have an exclusive with her for any property.

Is this normal?  Would you simply contact the listing agent and submit the purchase offer that way?

Thanks
