What a 3% commission would have cost on this one

On this deal, the seller would have kept roughly $23,000 more of their equity, with the same broker, the same MLS exposure, and the same fiduciary representation.

Selling over asking is about pricing strategy and marketing, not commission percentage. The percentage just decides how much of the upside you keep.
