I'm generally OK with commission based sales - if there are guarantees. There's very little due diligence on the part of the Realtor or real estate agent. They can't really be held responsible for anything related the to condition of the house if something was hidden or missed by a home inspector. They'll put anything on the market, and typically make suggestions to sellers that while intended to improve "curb appeal" and "showability" often cover up bigger problems that the property might have. Purchasing a home is always "buyer beware."
