<prompt> Human: So we just bought a house for 227,000, and we close on the 2nd of July. We were the first showing of the house, and we were told if we were to offer asking price, it would get accepted. So we offered asking, and it got accepted.Now, two weeks from closing, our realtor just told us that someone is now very interested in the house and want to buy it from us for 20,000 closing cost. The selling realtor talked to ours about the new offer. Now we didnt accept this offer because we knew that we would have to basically bid against someone else to get a different house, when we didnt have to bid against anyone to get this current house.My question is have you ever heard of this? Also how much would someone have to offer you to get the house from under you? 40,000? 50,000?Assistant: Arent you still going to be out realtor fees? Doesnt seem like a very good deal. Human: Im not too sure, they said they would cover closing costs, but I agree, 20,000 isnt that much in the scheme of things.Assistant: After 6 realtor fees youll only have a couple thousand left. Human: Oh I never thought of that. Yeah that makes it even more clear not to do it. I guess I was really seeing if anyone else went through this before since we already declined  <response>: Talk to your Realtor. The contract can be written many different ways. While 637; is standard and is generally paid by the seller, it can be adjusted on both points. I doubt another quick, guaranteed sale for 337; that is picked up by the buyer if the buyer will agree would be rejected by the Realtor. As the 637; is generally split between the buying and selling agents, your agent may not be splitting it with anyone. They will get their normal rate. Selling the buying on covering the costs would be a reasonable proposition if they want the house that badly and you wont sell if you have additional costs to yourself. Plus, they get to receive an additional commission on the next house they sell a client they dont seem to mind working with and a great story to tell.
