The flat fee that the seller pays replaces the much higher listing fee, usually 2.5% to 3.5% of the sales price, that the seller otherwise would pay if using a full service Listing Broker. As a result, the seller will not have to pay, at closing, additional fees to the listing broker that are typically based on the contract selling price. The seller will be required, however, to offer compensation to a buyer’s agent (we recommend usually 2%-3%), otherwise known as a cooperating broker. Buyers and Buyer’s agents will work directly with the seller, potentially saving the seller thousands of dollars in commissions. If the seller conveys title without the assistance of a Buyer’s Agent, then the seller will not have to pay a commission on his/her transaction, making it an entirely Brokerless transaction.
