Once you find a realtor you like sign an exclusivity agreement which ensures the realtor works for you. If a realtor is soft on commission they will be soft in negotiation. A good negotiator can make the commission worth it. Read the Form 17 and have an inspection done always.

Imagine for a moment a society forced to be the same thing. Robot? I submit and obey master.... Seriously is that a life worth living?

You should not have to change your life for strangers who should mind their own business. You do you. If we have nothing in common thank Goodness we can be different and not controlled.
