Answer 1

Iv been flipping houses for years now and when I hear that.I tell them go get them and I will give you a cut without us signing the house through the real estate company. They usually don't come back,they just want there 4-8% cut from your house when they eventually sale it.

Answer 2

To get you to list.  Never let them in the door without the buyer there.  And if they DO happen to have a buyer make sure that buyer is pre-approved, not pre-qualified.  They always "have a buyer" until you sign with them, then nothing.

Answer 3

because lots of realotors are dirty liars who just want the commision from selling someone's home....they dont care about you.
