The agent's commission is irrelevant. That just means the buyer needs to make a higher offer to be competitive with someone who is not using an agent.

This whole thing is about agent commissions. The comment I'm replying to says "just list it yourself" in direct response to "I would love for there to be some sort of competition injected into real estate commissions."

How in the world in that context is "the agent's commission...irrelevant?"
