I had great experiences buying properties both times with my realtor. They directed me to focus in on properties, I would never have found on my own. They also helped me win a bidding war. I obviously didn't have to pay their commissions on the buying side.
As a seller, I'd imagine staging and marketing your home is where the realtor comes in, or in a slow market, actually finding the buyers. A good realtor should be adding value to your sale.
I do agree that a lot realtors are awful though. You just need a good one.
