Case in point - we recently sold an investment condo and used a realtor friend - she brought a non-represented buyer and she wrote contract for both of us.
Rather than the $8K commission she's now in for $14K full commission but I negotiated getting 1/2 of the buying commission back.
Best is to find a realtor who's able to just write offer for you and get you some cash back which should still beat the $1K or some free interior upgrades the developers can add in. Good luck, great time to be on the buy side.

When I sell and buy both realtors I use offer 50% of their commission back to me.
