They are ridiculous when the value of the home is large. A $2m home has $100,000 realtor fees but a $500,000 home has a $25,000 fee. Do you think the realtor for the $2m home really does anywhere near $100,000 worth of work? Fees should instead be a fixed amount relative to the cost of marketing the home, holding open houses, and all the other legwork to sell a home. No other job has this kind of royalty payment except publishing (books, music, etc).
