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.

But you do pay their commission. Its baked into the purchase price.
