Thank you Filipe for your advice! We will run the numbers again. It seems average but less competitive since it is off market and better than market prices. So we will have to see if there is room for an extra fee. I definitely don't want to send the wrong message. 

Thank you for your response. We have not signed anything yet. We definitely want the realtor to get paid for their work, but want it to be the seller's responsibility. Thank you for the Massachusetts reference. It seems like it is a pretty normal thing but that it could be negotiated more. 

I have been in contact with a local realtor in my area who has brought me a couple of deals off the MLS. We are trying to put an offer in on a duplex and in the wording on the contract it says, "the selling firm is authorized to accept partial or complete payment if selling firm's fee from the seller of listing firm." But then it also says the buyer is obligated to pay the selling firm's fee. We asked her to change the wording since we want the seller to pay this fee. She said she cannot change the wording. Is this normal or a red flag? I don't want to get stuck in a bad situation with an extra 3% fee.

@jennifemcmurray Thanks so much!

Ryan, 

My husband and I are looking for a CPA in Rogers for the upcoming tax season. Who would you recommend?
