Are real estate agents getting paid differently?

I've heard that there's going to be changes in paying a real estate agent. I'm considering selling my house and wondering how that will impact me. Should I try to sell before or after the changes? Thanks.

Real Estate Agents need to disclose the commission they are making upfront before a contract is wrote up. The Department of Justice just want to know that the buyer and seller both negotiated the commission before entering into a purchase contract. Example Buyer Agent would have to sign a buyer agency contract explaining the commission and duties they are going to perform for the buyer and then find the buyer a home. Before most buyers agents took the commission the seller would offer.
