What Is a Real Estate Agent (And Why Are They
Taking Your Cash)

• When selling your house, the first step you may
  be inclined to take is to find a licensed real
  estate agent. Real estate agents have, for a long
  time, been a major part of the traditional
  selling market. Real estate agents represent both
  buyers and sellers in typical transactions, and
  they usually come with some level of
  certification or licensure, so you feel more
  confident putting your home and their hands. In
  return for this confidence, real estate agents
  require a percentage, or commission, from any
  sales that they help happen. If you're trying to
  sell your Florida house for cash, using a real
  estate agent may lose you up to 6 of your
  selling price.

• And you can't really negotiate that with your
  real estate agent. Most real estate agents are
  working with a broker, firm, or a fellow
  professional with a specialized license, so they
  have predetermined boundaries through which they
  process business transactions like selling your
  home. Because of this, the cash you will lose
  with a real estate agent is a set amount that you
  don't have a lot of say in. You also don't have a
  lot of say in whether or not your house will sell
  for your preferred price.

• This doesn't so much have to do with the real
  estate agent as it does with the traditional real
  estate market. Since real estate agents act as an
  in-between for buyers and sellers, they are
  simply managing negotiations, not ensuring that
  your home will actually sell for what it's worth.
  Some houses will sit on listing sites for months
  without ever being given an offer, and when they
  do finally get an offer, it's going to be much
  lower than what they originally anticipated.

• Add on the fact that you have to continue to pay
  mortgage, bills, and other costs while trying to
  sell your house in the traditional way, and your
  hope to get cash for your house is changing into
  spending lots of cash on a house that you no
  longer want. Instead of using a real estate agent
  that is going to take your cash for your home,
