How It Works
You deserve to have a top-notch, certified professional helping you every step of the way during the home buying process. But with most agents, the commission they are paid is a mystery to buyers, and how much they are paid, and who is paying them, is complicated. Flat Fee Buyer Brokers was created to make things simple and give you all the information up front, so you make an informed decision. We provide excellent service, at a fair, up-front price. The best part is, most of the time there is no out-of-pocket cost to you and you may receive a credit towards your closing costs too.
Simple, Up-Front Pricing:
| Sales Price | Flat Fee Buyer Commission |
|---|---|
| Up to $500,000 | $5,000 |
| Up to $750,000 | $7,500 |
| Up to $1,000,000 | $10,000 |
| Up to $1,500,000 | $12,500 |
| Up to $2,000,000 | $15,000 |
This fee includes 10 personal showings of listings and up to 3 offers. Additional showings are $50 each and additional offers are $100. Simple.
3 Ways to Pay
- We Pay You (Most Common): Yes, that’s correct. If the property seller is offering a commission through the MLS, that amount will be credited against our fee and any extra will be refunded to you. On a $500,000 property, that could be up to $5,000!
- The Seller Pays Our Fee: If the seller is NOT offering a commission through the MLS, we will request a credit for our fee with your offer. If accepted, there will be no out of pocket cost to you.
- You Pay Us Directly: If there is no commission offered and the seller is unwilling to pay our commission, our fee would be incorporated into your closing statement as a closing cost. Fortunately, our fees are just a fraction of what most agents charge, so you’ll still be saving money compared to other homebuyers buying the same property.
Get Everything, Sacrifice Nothing
You might think that because you’re paying less than everyone else, that you must be getting less than everyone else. Because our agents spend more time working with clients rather than marketing themselves, they don’t need to charge as much. We will negotiate the best price and terms we can on your behalf just like the listing agent is doing the same for the seller. We have a fiduciary responsibility to protect your interests and assist you in attaining your home buying goals.
