How about this?

Ask her to lower her side of the commission say it is 6% she will give 4 to the buyers agent and keep 2 for herself. She could have a open house for agents only and tell them about the incentive.

In the end it comes down to price, location and demand. At your price point the real rain maker real estate agents are not going to help you. They are too busy with their multimillion dollar proprieties.

S10 had a good suggestion I dump her and then wait a bit and re-list at a new price this way your DOM will be back to zero and you be listed as NEW on the MLS. Don't expect your new agent to be lights out but at least you will be at a fresh start. Also interview 4 or 5 different agents and ask them their strategy to sell your home then pick the best one. It is a interview for them.

Why in the world would she do that?
