Let's build this for selling/buying homes. I have sold and bought a home recently and I did so without the use of a listing or buying agent. It can be done, easily and you generally save at least 3% on the purchase and sell side. Therefore, eliminating it would equate to a savings of around 6%. You could charge 1% of the sale. The average home price in 2010 was $227k. One percent isn't too shabby. Plus, think of the referral fees you could grab from inspectors, attorneys etc. Who wants to build this with me?
