Question 2

How much is the commission for a listing?

Accepted Answer

At HOME & DEAL we firmly believe that the homeseller should keep more of their hard earned money.  Therefore, HOME & DEAL charges a 1% service fee for most listings.  The seller can decide how much they would like to offer to the buyer's broker/agent.  Customarily sellers will offer the buyer's side anywhere between 2% to 2.5% but this amount is entirely up to the homeseller.

Question 3

How much commission does the homeseller have to offer to the Buyer’s agent?

Accepted Answer

Traditionally the homeseller of a home will offer the buyer’s broker/agent a standard commission of 2.5%. You as the seller can choose the commission offered but studies show that you are likely to receive significantly more offers if the buyer is working with an agent which gives you a much better change of selling the home for more.

Question 4

What is the HOME & DEAL rebate?

Accepted Answer

With the information readily available on the internet, more than ever before the homebuyer has direct access to the real estate market.  Often, the homebuyer is able to see what’s on the market just as quickly as their real estate agent.  Therefore a lot of the searching that the real estate agent once had to do for the homebueyr is now done by the homebuyer themselves.  HOME & DEAL believes that the homebuyer should be compensated for their involvement and work in the homesearching process.  Once the homebuyer identifies a property to purchase,  HOME & DEAL will prepare the offer on behalf of the homebuyer. Upon acceptance of the offer, HOME & DEAL will take care of whole process from the acceptance of the offer to the close of escrow and at the close of escrow HOME & DEAL will rebate the Buyer 50% of the commission earned by HOME & DEAL on the transaction.

Question 5

Why is HOME & DEAL's service fee lower than traditional real estate brokerages?
