In a good market estate agents are motivated to flip as many places as quickly as possible (as the incremental increase in their income for increasing the value of your home doesn't AT ALL compare to acquiring the base percentage of an entirely different property). It might be that their motivation is to sell your home quickly at a discount.
In a bad market estate agents are motivated to flip your home for as much as possible as there's no guarantee where their next property/sale will come from.
Note that niche/expert estate agents usually work to different economics (extremely high value sales where you HAVE to have access to a database of potential buyers for example).
