Yeah 300k - and if they get less than 290k they get a lower commission.

How much commission does an estate agent get?

(Bazongaloid, Fri 30 Aug 2013, 10:31, Reply)

Standard rate with these jokers is 2.25%
I got them to agree to 1.5% which is prolly what they expect to get anyway - going down to 1.25% if they get less than 290k.

1-2% is standard on a resi sale

I can see the point in a percentage commision
but at the same time, it's ridiculous if you're selling a million pound house compared with a £100K house you don't do ten times as much work.

I suspect some kind of fair medium would lie in between the two approaches.
Although I kind of think that selling "a house" is the same amount of work no matter how much the fucker sells for, really.

I would say that the more money the buyer has, the more of a total ball ache they are, based on my experience

I would say that you are a total ball ache. Because nobody would ever want to have sex with you. So their balls would ache.

That's not what your wife said

I'm not sure about this
Thumbs are thicker than fingers, so that's good, but fingers are longer, so that's not as good.

On average I'm assuming the Swipe actually likes my cock.

I don't think "having to sell to cunts" justifies charging more money.
We can't increase student fees if they turn out to be a ballache.

In any case aren't you working for the seller not the buyer?

I'm pointing out that you'd hate it
why are you trying to convince yourself that it'd be good?
