Under normal conditions, if a broker or agent came to the table with a buyer I wouldn't begrudge paying the commission, but in this instance, she is representing herself in a private transaction.

If you want to be a great deal finder, get your license and start representing people as their agent.

Whether you are talking to the seller or their representative doesn't really matter.Negotiation can fix a lot of problems and you never get what you don't ask for.  

That 20% DP should represent your entire cost of the property too. 

I was just wondering if any of you ninjas had some super awesome strategies for representing list/sell clients when there is such low inventory.

You and your agent need to think strategically about what an all cash offer really represents to a seller.

Ive factored in 3% for closing costs and I will be representing the sale of the home as a realtor.

The amount charged represents a gross disparity between the price ofthe good or service and the price of the same good or service that wassold or offered for sale in the usual course of business during the thirty(30) days immediately prior to the peacetime emergency declared byExecutive Order 20-01 on March 13, 2020, unless the persondemonstrates that the disparity is substantially attributable tosignificant additional costs outside the control of the person; orii.

@Mitch Tossberg-WilsonMy recommendation is to have your agent representing you give you the estimated value of the home.

This helps the seller.And since you're representing both the seller and buyer, you get to keep the whole commission which is like getting two commissions!
