If you can eliminate carrying costs quickly and avoid reducing the price you'll likely come out ahead of the commision.

Brilliant. A man after my own heart.
I use a listing agent who is a total pompous a$$. I offer 1% to the listing agent and 5% to the buying agent. The pompous a$$ listing agent doesn't care because he has every confidence that he is going to get all 6%.
When I sell my current house and flee California in 3 years and 9 months, it will kill me to give this guy 50k. But I am 99% sure that he will have a buyer for it before I even call him.
Make your money when you buy, not when you sell.
