I see your point, but it is not universal. There are a number of reasons sellers choose FSBO. I have spoken with thousands of FSBO as an agent and as DearMonty on my website. Here are a few other reasons: 1. significant inside real estate knowledge who know how the system works. Examples are contractors, attorneys, title company workers, and there are more. 2. Poor experiences with agents. 3.A need to be in control. 4. They recognize the significant asymmetry and conflict of interest of the agent. Yes, there are bottom feeders and they need us more, but they may be harder to convince. Time will tell. I appreciate your feedback/
