How We Provide the Discount

Home Offices

We achieve considerable cost savings by not renting office space. We effectively manage all aspects of buying and selling homes remotely, thanks to modern technology.

Lowered Brokerage Fees

Other brokers charge their agents up to 4X more than our broker charges, costing their agents $30,000 to $40,000 a year in fees. We don't subject our agents to such practices, enabling them to make a comfortable living while offering our clients savings.

Competitive Advertising Structure

Our advertising budget is significantly lower than that of our competitors charging a 3% fee. Offering services at a more competitive price results in a higher response rate, reducing our need for extensive advertising. Our unique value proposition allows us to spend much less on acquiring listings.

Home Buyers

We are aware that our marketing material and website primarily focus on listings, this is due to the fact that most of our home sellers also become our home buyers. As a result, there is less need for buyer-specific marketing. However, we are always delighted to assist first-time homebuyers in their exciting journey to homeownership. Whether you are selling, buying, investing, or renting, we are committed to supporting you in all your real estate endeavors.

Don't Let Agents Scare You Away

We are the competition that threatens other agents' easy $10,000+ paychecks. Larger brokerages train their agents to counter requests for discounted commissions with phrases like: "Discounted rate means discounted service", "I don't work for a discounted paycheck, would you?" and "You get what you pay for". Expect to hear negative rumors about us—they aim to maintain the traditional high commission system, where a commission on a single sale often exceeds two months of a typical client's income.

Why Not Use Other 1% Agents

If another agent offers a 1% commission from the start, they may be a good fit. We just ask for a chance to meet and explain our services. However, if they only drop to 1% after you mention us, we would recommend you reconsider. Would you trust someone who drops a $90k car to $30k just because you found it for 30k elsewhere? Do they really have your best interests in mind? Will they work as hard to sell your home as they do their others’ that are paying them 3%? With us, you don't have to worry—we're committed to our 1% model from the start.

How Larger
Brokerages Compare

Many of our agents, including our founders, have extensive experience working with and for the more well-known firms. While larger brokerages prioritize quantity over quality due to high agent turnover, we ensure all our agents have a proven track record of closing significantly more deals than the average agent. Additionally, we don't charge high fees, contributing to our agents' long-term satisfaction and success.

Where The 3% Started

Before the mid-1990s, real estate agents spent extensive hours selling listings or finding homes for clients without the MLS. They met weekly with brokers, made numerous phone calls, went door-to-door, and invested heavily in advertising, often dedicating over 120 hours per transaction. This effort justified the 3% commission. With the advent of the MLS, agents' work shifted primarily to acquiring new clients, reducing the time spent on individual transactions but still earning the same commission. In summary, agents work less hours per transaction but still demand the same payment as before.

What Other Agents Won't Tell You

Mailing Campaigns

The success rate of mailouts is low and mainly benefits the listing agent. This method, known as "farming a market", involves sending flyers or postcards (e.g., Coming Soon, Just Listed, Just Sold) to nearby homes to establish the agent as the "neighborhood expert" in order to attract more business. The truth is, any experienced agent should be able to estimate a home's value based on recently sold properties, current market competition, and overall market trends. By avoiding costly mail campaigns, we keep expenses low and offer more affordable services to our clients.

Off-Market Buyers

Real estate brokerages often claim to have "exclusive off-market buyers" for a hassle-free sale. However, this benefits the listing agent more than the seller, as they earn a higher commission by "double-siding" the transaction. Off-market sales limit buyer exposure and potential bids, much like offering a car for sale to just one buyer instead of many. Listing your home on the MLS, though more effort, reaches a wider audience and ensures the best sale price. We always recommend marketing your home widely for the highest profit.
