Quoting: IdamoI think there should be a federal cap on what the lender can pay in terms of commission for short sales, 3% would be more than fair. The reason is that guess who pays for that commission when the bank puts it in the "loss" column, that's right you and every other tax payer.(most of the time) [link to www.azcentral.com] Banksters, lawyers, insurance companies, realtors and preachers all belong in the same group.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1042313 United States02/16/2011 10:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A Realtor can list a property for 6%.. Commission are always negotible.. but, that means the buyers' realtor will get 3%, and the listing agent gets 3%. Most banks only allow a 4% commission on a short sale.. 2% per side.. And, the realtors then have to split that 2% with their brokers.. so they end up with 70% of that 2%. |

| Mrs. Smith User ID: 1110553 United States02/16/2011 10:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Like bankers, they are parasites, but unlike bankers they can't print money out of thin air. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1267991But they can print titles "out of thin air". In Hawaii, there is no such thing as a clear title - they're all bogus. The realtors know this but won't reveal it to you when they're after your cash and trying to sell you a piece of paradise.

| 911Bob User ID: 1067231 United States02/16/2011 11:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Banksters were involved in predatory lending practices. The Realtor has no control over this process. The Realtor helps a client buy or sell a property. The mortgage process is legally out of the Realtor's fiduciary responsibility. Predatory selling?
