Realtor Fees

[Dominick Longbucco]

Good Morning,

I am interested in buying 1 of 3 properties.  I don't currently have a realtor, and have a few questions.

1. Since I basically have done alot of the research on my own, how do you go about negotiating with realtors to reduce their fees?  I am trying to understand how this works.  I get that the seller basically pays the fee, and it may be split a certain way between the buyers and sellers agents, but if I have done most of the work, isn't there some room for negotiation?

Lets start there, I'm sure other questions will come up.  Thank you.
