Paying a Real Estate Agent? Here's What You're Actually Getting

Описание: Is paying for a real estate agent really worth it?

With Zillow, Redfin, and online listings everywhere, many buyers and sellers wonder if they actually need a Realtor—or if they can save money by going it alone.

In this video, I give an honest, transparent breakdown of what real estate agents really do, how commissions work, and when hiring an agent truly makes financial sense. I also explain the difference between good Realtors and bad ones, and how buyers, sellers, and investors can protect themselves by knowing what an agent’s job is supposed to be.

⚠️ Disclaimer: I am a licensed Realtor®, and this video may sound biased to some viewers. My goal is not to convince you—but to inform you and give you clarity so you can make the best decision for your situation.

What real estate agents actually do behind the scenes
How much agents really cost—and how they can save you money
Real negotiation examples with dollar amounts
Why many FSBO sellers lose money without realizing it
How to spot a GOOD agent vs a BAD one
