1%-1.5% is enough

| h*****g 发帖数: 596 | | t**e 发帖数: 1805 | 4 This is a trap to make you commit to close this particular transaction at
whatever cost to you. You put $1,000 into an escrow at the time of your
offer, which tells the seller that you will NOT look for other properties or
you are willing to lose the $1,000. This is a trap so be careful.

buyer agent不开门,其他什么都干
1%-1.5% is ridiculous

we did exactly the same, and it is very common in MA.

theoretically, everything that is not listed as a contingency in your signed
offer letter.
