Forget the 1% Realtors!  Who is going to show your property? 

The selling Realtor may be willing to list your property for 1%, but the Realtor bringing the buyer will want his full 3%.

If he is not going to get his full 3%.. why would he show your home?  There are plenty of other homes he could show his clients where he WILL get his full 3%.  

Trust me.. my ex-husband is a Realtor.  He will NOT show a property unless his commission is at least 2.5%.  Most of the other Realtors would not show a property unless they got the full 3%.  Why would they?
