I responded to that same question on this thread a long time ago, so at the risk of repeating myself and being boring, let me just say that this has been debated (and tried) over and over again by millions of people.

However, to set a realistic hourly fee or fee-per-specific-service and then quote it to a buyer or seller would be to send the buyer or seller off a cliff, yelling NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO WAYYYYYYYYYYY.

There's also the danger of having the client arbitrarily pick out a few services he wants and having him complain later that his house didn't sell or his purchase didn't work, and it's all the agent's fault. Each client is a full-time, full-service job, in my book.
