Understanding that commissions are "negotiable", can I negotiate the percentage a buyer's agent representing me gets even if I am interested in the seller to pay for it as part of the offer? How true is it that I will get a better/worse deal with/without a buyer's agent? If for example I get a buyer's agent will he/she be likely to charge let's say 3%? will this translate in a 3% increase in the value of my offer? In other words, if I am buying a 100K house will the seller be likely to not want to sell it for 100 but instead 103 since my offer will include a clause that indicates I would want for him/her to pay my agent's commission? In actuality I only need for and agent to help negotiate and close. I have been looking, researching on the possible house I want for months without his or her help so I do not consider it fair that he/she would get a full commission if I am doing half of the work. Is this reasonable?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
All great answers. Thank you so much for taking the time.
@ airjarrod, You are the only one who missed the question, txs anyway.
