To all  who have responded to my posting,

Thanks for letting me know that a 20 percent commission is unheard of.

 I can see now that the original information I received was highly
exaggerated. Commissions are between 4 and 8 percent ( depending on how fast
the realtor sells  the apartment). Nevertheless, these rates are still MUCH
higher than in many CIS countries, Europe and America.

After talking to many agencies I learned that during the crisis rates have
actually gone up because of how hard it is to sell apartments now.
