If the buyer doesn't have an agent, I would guess that you'd probably at least be able to at least come to an arrangement with your agent to take a reduced commission, since otherwise they would be basically getting a double commission for very little work.Also, just bear in mind that if they do make any of these adjustments for you, they are doing you a favor.
