I guess the argument is that the agent brings more than 6% value to the table so everyone wins. But I’ve always found it odd it’s a fixed percentage on total sale and not a fixed rate + percentage over a threshold.

Saying that, where I live many hones are well over $1,000,000 - that’s more or less the entry level. The agencies do a good job staging them (moving all existing furnishings out and replacing with pieces that flatter the space), taking great photographs, and hosting events at the property - that all costs money.
