Sellers pay the commission to both agents—typically 5 to 6% of the home’s selling price. The seller’s agent and the buyer’s agent each get 2 to 3%.
The Local Realty sellers pay as low as 4% overall. Instead of 2 to 3%, we charge as low as 1% to list your home.*
You can offer the buyer’s agent any commission you like, but we recommend the standard 2.5 to 3% to encourage agents to show your home to their clients.
*Minimum commissions apply. Commissions subject to change. Listing commission increased 1% of sale price if buyer is unrepresented.
The seller typically pays The Local Realty 2 to 3% of the home price for representing you as a buyer, just like they would to a traditional agent. However, The Local Realty contributes part of that money, $4,000 on average, to your closing costs.
The exact amount depends on the home’s asking price. When the savings are larger than your closing costs, we typically give you a check for the rest.
If you buy a short sale, the typical calculation does not apply. Instead, we’ll give back up to 15% of our commission.*
*Savings calculated based on the final sale price of the home. Subject to lender approval and a minimum commission of $6,000.
