Realtors are Crooks

I'm so sick of realtors. The fact that so many are still trying to keep up the traditional 6% commission after housing prices have tripled is disgusting. I don't care that they do a lot of work they don't get paid for. Why should a buyer/seller have to this outrageous cost just because they end up failing with other clients!?

Then, they engage in hidden conversations with another realtor who works for the other side, while both have the exact same financial incentive and goal - to sell the home for a much as possible.

Finally, they collectively create a monopoly of information through the MLS, sue realtor sites that include sales data, and spend millions in lobby money to pass legislation to make sales data less transparent.

And people think lawyers are bad...

I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
