I do question the "volume seller" thing though... if someone is doing that many deals that they can afford to charge less, then they simply will not have much time for each individual client. The whole selling process from an agents end is a lot more time consuming and costly then 99% of people think.
I wish you the best of luck, hopefully this guy the moderator recommended is as good as he claims.

You make a cogent case for hiring a knowledgeable independent.
Cutting unnecessary and non-productive costs while offering service equivalent to a franchise/corporate business model agent is a win for the consumer.
"You get what you pay for?" What exclusive, guaranteed, tangible value benefit does the consumer get from paying franchise fees, supporting Class A office space, over-priced coaching, and multiple layers of management whom most will never meet?
