Commissions Explained
This is an example of a $250,000 home, comparing a traditional broker charging a 6% commission vs the Help-U-Sell commission structure.
Every real estate transaction has two sides, the listing side and the selling side.
A traditional real estate broker charging a 6% commission on a $250,000 home would split the commission between the two sides.
Listing Commission Selling Commission
3% = $7,500 plus 3% = $7,500
Total Commission = $15,000
Your Realtor might list the property and a Realtor from another company could be the one to show and sell it and they would each get 3% or $7,500.
Your Realtor might list the property and find the buyer for the property, and they would get both the listing and the selling commissions equaling $15,000.
At Help-U-Sell we charge a flat fee on the listing side and you would pay a 3% commission to the selling broker if a Realtor from another company procured the buyer.
Flat Fee Listing Commission Selling Commission
$3,995 plus 3% = $7,500
Total Commission = $11,495
You just saved $3,505 !!!!!!
But if Help-U-Sell lists the property and procures the buyer you only pay 1.5% on the selling side.
$3,995 plus 1.5% = $3,750
Total Commission = $7,745
You just saved $7,255 !!!!!!!!!
Please note:: All commissions are negotiable and are not set by law.
