@coreypetros I’m a real estate reporter with CNN interested to talk to you about real estate commissions when buying it selling your home. Please DM!

How to buy a house in a sellers market: Don’t use a buyers agent! Work directly with the sellers agent. Make offer with 2% less commission. So the sellers agent gets an extra 1% and the seller doesn’t have to pay the other 2% (typical is 6% total) Seller makes more money. I've bought multiple houses like this. It is incredibly effective especially in competitive markets.

@BHuff5 @melissasavenko I paid 4% total commission when selling my house. Split between the realtors. Seems reasonable to me. I agree that people should have a choice. I'm just saying that I would probably take the same approach as I have in the past.

The DOJ wanted to prevent steering in real estate. So now buyers will have to negotiate a commission with each potential home they want to see on the front end before viewing. Which will lead to agents not showing homes where the seller isn't offering to pay the buy-side commission. Which is.....STEERING. I mean, you CANNOT make this sh*t up.

Rents are up by double-digit percentages in some cities & buying a home is the most unaffordable it's been since the mid-1980s. Mortgage rates are over 6% and home prices remain just off the record highs, pricing many out of the market. @annabahney @CNN cnn.com/2022/09/22/hom…
