Hello, I've read that estate agents often charge from 1% to 4% of the sale price of a home,commission. What should my negotiating strategy be with the estate agent? I want to get the lowest percent possible but at the same time I feel a good estate agent will help me sell my place and she deserves to be paid for the sale. I plan to sell my apartment which is in the higher price bracket in Dublin, great location, close to the city centre, great neighbourhood, ideal for downsizing, easy commute, good schools etc.......so I don't imagine it will be a difficult sale.
