Technically yes fees are negotiable....the listing process is a interview for both the realtor and the sellers. Everyone needs to agree and if not then the realtor moves onto a different client or the client moves onto a new realtor.
There are services/realtors who advertise lower commissions. There are companies that will try and sell your home for less than what I pay my photographer alone. At the end of the day it is like anything in life.....for the most part you get what you pay for.
It is against my brokerage/most brokerages rules to advertise commissions. I would be lying if I said that I have never reduced my commissions or offered something of value at the end of the deal.
Some properties are easier to sell/cost me less to sell.
Some buyers are also selling their home with me.
Now keep in mind my commission is 3.5 and 1.5. As I am not going to discount the buyers agents commission your proposal of 4/3 would actually leave me with 0.5/1.5
