Why do agents get paid so much money?

“With the amount of driving, marketing, and other fees that we have to pay in order to be agents and to sell real estate, the commission is not as much as it appears. Especially since we, as agents, are still paying into our company; they take a portion of our commission with each sale. When you factor in that we spend on average 100 hours per transaction, and the risk to you being nothing if we don’t do our jobs and get it sold it’s really quite a bargain. If you feel its too much – I’ll be happy to reduce it by 50% if you are willing to pay that fee upfront.”
