For my first home in Canada we (really the seller, but that’s just a shell game) paid 2% and it felt like a lot in terms of actual $, largely given how home prices have inflated. We walked through three homes I picked out, and then an evening of email counter offers, and then another walk through, and then some paper work. Then I got to pay the lawyers as well as the inspector. I imagine I subsidize the times in my agent’s job where she does a ton of work and there’s no sale at all. Though maybe a flat fee could still incorporate that reality.
