The agent is a family friend and she said the listing was acceptable at the $549,000 that we originally went with. I understand that the realtor could not predict the future, but until recently it was suggested to us to lower to this figure. I would have lowered it sooner if I was directed to. I am not trying to cut out the realtor by no means. I just want to sell the house due to the circumstances. I was just trying to look at every angle to sell the home and if we didn't have to pay the commission then we would be able to lower the price of the house even more to get it sold. We are nowhere near even close to losing the house, I am not even being realistic in the money I would walk away with. As it stands I will only get around $10K for my troubles. Thanks. - Tue Jul 15 2008, 13:24
