How large a concession are buyers getting from sellers? In cities where supply is high (say, in excess of 1 year), how large a concession are sellers paying buyers, and how are closing costs being split? Thanks acermil. Every negotiation contains an element of psychology. Buyers often feel as if they're getting a better deal from a seller who is offering pay closing costs or to provide "buyer assistance," even though we all know that, in the end, the price will be the same. My question really revolves around the prevailing psychology and what active REALTORS are doing in this area.

How do you search on eBay by sellers rather than items? Hi, I would like to know how you would use ebay to search for a seller (who is not saved on you list of favourite sellers) so that you can find a particular seller and what they have on offer.

Thanks for your help!
