"...the real estate agents in most jurisdictions by law represent the seller (even the agent you use to help you find the house, with very few exceptions),"...

Just a small correction. Your quote above is not true anymore. Under today's real estate rules there is Buyers' Agency where the agent is under contract to the Buyer and has a fiduciary responsibilty to protect the Buyers' interest. The days of sub-agency where the agents all represented the Seller are gone.
