"Now explain this to me again. 6% was good in WWII but not now?"

During WWII, did it cost $530,000 for a two bedroom condo? Or $750,000 for a three bedroom townhouse? That's what the real estate market is like here in Alexandria, VA. Six percent commission is ridiculous!

If the home prices are inflated they will come down.

Did gas cost $3/gallon in WWII. Did agents do anything to market properties in WWII. Do you think those who bought and sold property had any of the liabilities there are today? Where buyers and sellers represented well then- buyer agency just came into being in the 90's.

I'm open to your idea. Let's find out what the median price of a home was in WWII and the media household income.

To me a lot of your type of anger is hyper selfish. You love the 180% appreciation you got for doing nothing in the last five years, but when it comes time to sell it, hey those Realtors aren't doing enough. MeMeME!
