I'm selling a house right now. We listed at 15% more than we wanted, factoring in the realtor fees and room to give the buyer some negotiation (not being in a super hot market). In both selling that house and buying the new one, almost all companies involved (appraisers, realtors, inspectors) were close to useless (with the exception of the title companies, who did the actual legal stuff off the transaction). There is massive room for disruption in the industry, but also massive inertia.
