It is true that the fee paid by the Seller is negotiable, however, the average real estate agent will try to convince the Seller that the amount of effort that they are going to expend trying to find a buyer requires that they get a 4% (more or less) commission upon sale of the property The fact is that 90% or more of all buyers find a property by one of three methods:

MLS Listing - A buyer, or another real estate agent, sees the property on the MLS and decides to see the property

REALTOR.com Listing - A buyer sees the property on the REALTOR.com website and calls an agent and requests to see the property, Yard Sign

The Buyer drives by the property while scouting a neighborhood in which they would like to live, and based on 'curb appeal' decides that they want to see the property, then calls an agent to show it to them.

Most buyers do not find a home based on newspaper advertising, open houses, or direct mail campaigns to local home owners.

The vast majority of homes are sold because of an MLS listing and/or the yard sign.
