Estate Agents - If you want the listing more than the vendor wants the sale, you've already lost.

Listing boards don’t pay the bills. Exchanges do.

Yes, I know you need the listing to be able to sell it - I get that

Yet, are you really gonna be able to sell it and get pay it if you have an unmotivated vendor with a cheap fee at a over the top asking price ???

The question is: Are you addicted to the dopamine hit of a listing... or are you in this game to actually get people moved?
