If I'm purchasing a house for 25000 how much do i pay my realtor?
Typically the commission is paid by the seller, which the buyer's agent & seller's agent split in half. If you are paying the agent a commission, he or she is getting paid twice. If I were you, I would look for another agent that will accept the commission that is being paid by the seller.
Who pays closing cost on sale of real estate buyer or seller?
Everything is negotiable. In the US, the closing costs are mostly a buyer expense. The Seller has some closing costs such as commission to a listing agent if one is used, deed preparation, and revenue stamp fees charged by the state or locality. Often the buyer will have the seller pay a portion of closing costs to conserve cash, while paying a slightly higher price. Many large builders are also in the mortgage business and pay some closing costs to have another revenue stream.
Who pays for a home inspection?
In a real estate transaction, typically the buyer pays as it is the most beneficial to them to have this process completed.

Most realtors will stress the importance of a home inspection and will sometimes pay for their client or negotiate for the seller to pay. Nine times out of ten it is the buyer.
