This makes absolutely no sense to me. Why on earth would I be obligated to pay the buyer's agent? What has the agent done for me? When did I establish a relationship with this person and agree to pay them anything?
I would feel absolutely fine paying this person zero. If they want to get paid, they should take it up with the buyer because the buyer is the one who engaged their services.
Note: I am not American.
- chrisco255 8y agoThey brought you a buyer. The buyer pays for everything in both cases. If you sell your house for $100K - 3% it's the same as selling your house FSBO for $97K.
- gibybo 8y agoHe sold his as FSBO. It's highly unlikely the real estate agent brought the buyer since they hate FSBOs. It's much more likely the buyer found the house himself/herself.
