In response to "As the spouse of a realtor, I put this in the category of "be careful what you wish for". Buyers will now have to pay their agents instead of having " by pmb

As someone who bought a house for sub $250k, 6% is honestly not terrible. I would have been happier at 5% because I did all of my own research

but whatever.

Had I bought for a mill, I don't know what added value I'd have seen. Is it harder to be rich?

I think there should be some sort of sliding scale. But flat 6% feels not ok.

Aside: if I bought my house now, I would pay 40% more commission than when I bought it. I get inflation but that's not 40%.

A flat percent seems wrong but I don't know what the answer is. I feel bad for both sides.
