The Math!
If we guess that the average real estate commission is 6% then it is true that the average homeowner will only receive 94% of the sale price. Do you want to receive 94% of the gas you purchase? How about 94% of the groceries you purchase?
What if I told you that I could get you closer to 97%? What about 97.5%?
Let’s look at this another way:

Why not keep as much of your money in your pocket as possible?
Why should you pay a real estate office $42,000 in commissions when their advertising costs are the same whether your home is listing for $700,000 or $50,000?
