What Is The Average Commission Percentage Given To Real Estate Agents For Selling Your Home?

I’m planning to sell my home. I’m planning to work with a real estate agent that was referred to me through the internet, who will get a 6% commission upon sale of my home. I want to know if this is a normal rate or is it too high?
Basically I want to know if I should look for another agent who charges a lesser commission rate or stick with this one.

Does Becoming A Licensed Real Estate Agent/broker Before Buying Your Home Save You Money?

I am planning to buy a home around $700K in New York City. I’m wondering if I will save any money by becoming a licensed real estate agent/broker (I realize I have to take the test and pass) and then purchasing the home for myself. I would think that by doing this, I would save the broker commission that I would otherwise be paying another real estate agent/broker. Is this a valid assumption? Please provide any information about this. Thanks a lot.

What Is The Difference Between A Real-estate Appraisal On Your Home’s Value And The Tax Appraisal Value?

Currently, I only know the tax appraisal 109K, from the home I am planning to buy.
(Home built in 2006, around 1500 sq)
How much of a difference can I expect from the real estate appraisal? Lower or Higher?
Are homes usually valued around the same as the tax appraisal?
What kind of problems can I face if the appraiser values the home too low or high?
