Realtor commission when buyer is not represented?

I am a seller of a Condo in Toronto. I have a realtor representing me. In my contract we signed commission as 4% (2.5% for buyer’ , 1.5% for seller).

If my realtor found a buyer who is not with a realtor or agent. Do i still have to pay 4% or just 1.5%? What are all the other costs involved while selling my condo here? (example: realtor commission, lawyer fees, etc).

Could anyone please give me a rough estimate of these costs involved? I have an offer and have to reply by morning tomorrow (in 12 hours). I am trying to calculate if I actually make / loose money. I am in real desperation to sell my place, so dont want to let this offer go.

What are the lawyer fees, transfer of property fees(who pays that?), any other fees involved?
Please help.
it states dual representation in the contract….can it be negotiated?? whats a fair %age?

Too Many Condos in Toronto, How To Choose? Recruit a Realtor

Are planning to buy a Condo in Toronto (might be anywhere else too)? Looking for a home, a safe investment option? Well, you probably have made the right decision – Toronto Condos (and lofts too) are great investments, and to help you with the whole process, you should definitely ask a professional realtor to help you.

Most of the investors are never aware or think about bringing a realtor to the Toronto purchases office to help in the purchasing process.

Here are some of the many benefits of recruiting a realtor:
1) The realtor must look after your best interest as you are the one who employed him. For most people, a home is the largest purchase decision they will ever make. Having a concerned, but objective, realtor helps you stay focused on both the emotional and financial issues vital to you.
2) A realtor can literally save you a lot of money by negotiating on your behalf. They are professionals and can decrease price by a lot which you could not do by yourself.
3) He can negotiate in extending the payment frequency for up to 1 year in some cases, or until closing of the condo or loft project. This could take as long as 2 years. (This gives you more time to save{!}).
4) He can also help you understand the plans and blue prints of the building and identify possible problems and issues. They are professionals (again), and can visualize the plans into homes in front of your eyes.
5) Some builders are quick to dismiss any questions regarding future developments around their current project. In some cases people purchase a property without knowing that a new project has been planned directly in front of theirs, potentially blocking their view or casting unwanted shadows.
 6) Peace of mind knowing that a qualified, knowledgeable Realtor is working for you to maximizing your investment.
7) Given your budget, they will pull of the best options for you.
8) They are familiar with the overall process and paper works. These can be quite confusing to people who are new in buying properties.

And why not employ a realtor to work for you, when its free? If you are going to buy a condo in Toronto (and again, anywhere else too), getting a realtor is the best solution for you.
