Buyer Representation: What You Need to Know (and Why It Matters More Than Ever)

First things first—let’s talk money.
In today’s real estate market, buyer agent compensation is evolving. Here’s the real deal:

  • In most cases, sellers still offer compensation to the buyer’s agent—often 2% to 3% of the sale price, depending on the property and market.

  • But sellers are not required to make an offer of compensation. Some homes may even offer nothing toward buyer agent fees.

  • That’s why transparency matters—up front, always.

Our Buyer Service Model

Simple. Transparent. Professional.

We offer one buyer service: full representation for 2.4%.

That means:

  • If the seller is offering 2.4% or more, you’re covered—you pay nothing out of pocket.

  • If the seller is offering less than 2.4%, we’ll walk through your options before touring the home. You can:

    • Choose to cover the difference (if any),

    • Negotiate the commission into our offer terms,

    • Or decide the home isn’t the right fit—and keep searching.

Either way, you’ll never be surprised, and you’ll know exactly what you’re signing up.
