WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF A TRADITIONAL BROKERAGE?
The single biggest reason anyone would choose a discount brokerage is because they want to save money. However, with lower cost also comes a potential for lower quality of service and expertise. And if you don’t get the house or sell the house, then the compensation didn't matter in the 1st place. Traditional agents will have more training and resources to increase exposure for a property beyond just the “basic” services. This could result in a higher sales price that negates any commission discounts
