Do you pay a real estate agent to list your home?

No. A real estate agent earns a commission as a percentage of the selling price of the house only after the successful completion of the sale. The commission (usually around 6% of the selling price) is split between the agency listing the property and the agency selling the property, if they are not one and the same. The individual agent(s) are paid a portion of this commission, the amount depending on the contract each agent has with their indivdual agencies.

How much money does a real estate agent make for each house they sell?

In most cases, they make a percentage of the sale price (called a commission), and that percentage varies. Usually, both the buyer and the seller have an agent, and both get a commission. If the same agent represents both buyer and seller, he gets a double commission. You should call individual real estate firms to find out how much commission they give their agents.

Can a sellers real estate agent tell the buyers agent the exact price the buyer will accept less than the listing price?

They can, but only if their principal (the seller) has given them express permission to do so. If they do this without the seller's permission it is a breach of the agent's duties to his/her principal. If this happened in the US the seller should notify the Real Estate Commission in their state and file a complaint against their agent. This is extremely unethical.


What is travel and tourism commission level?

The travel agencies used to make their money by selling airline tickets to a customer... and adding a commission to the price of the ticket. That was paid by the airline or the ticket-buyer. It was their payment for a service rendered to the customer (and a service for the airline since the airline wants to fill the planes). If the commissions are low, it is cheap to use a travel agent. it might save a flyer 1 hour on the phone to the airline. She just calls the travel agent to do that. If commissions are high, a buyer will avoid the travel agent. The airline will avoid the travel agent. Unless the agent does enuf extra work to justify the high commission.

What kind of commission do sellers of used cars generally receive?

Most dealers pay you a 20%-35% commission on the GROSS profit (not the total sale of the car), which means that if the dealership was in the car $17,500, and the car sold for $20,000, they'd get 20% of the $2500 between the invoice price and the sale price = $500.
