What is a QUICK rule of thumb for ...

Buyer Closing Cost % of house value

Seller Closing Cost % of house value

Is it generally accurate to say that the seller pays the realtor fee 6% and the buyer pays for everything else [ appraisal, title, inspection, survey, termite, attorney, escrow, loan fees, and pre-paids? ]

Thanks for the great info everyone...seems unanimous..appreciate your insights!

Thanks for all the great input!...really helpful!

Hey Jon, I appreciate the input. Thank you!

Very interesting Russell...thanks for the insight...so you lean toward the fact that true top tier agents do have some efficient strategy options

thanks Andrew...appreciate your time..I don't know how a realtor can average a higher than average selling price or be a faster salesman..based on skill...it seems the market would be the same for all realtors...the only exception would be some realtors that maybe under-perform due to maybe weak negotiation skills? But i don't know enough to be sure...

Thx

yes..$500 bonus is house is closed by x date..

is a bonus to motivate the realtor to push the closing process faster or to do more marketing efforts?
