Buyers
I give you 1.5% of our commission back.
When a house is bought or sold, commission is paid to real estate agents in exchange for their services. The ‘NORMAL’ rate in Northern California is 2.5% for each agent (one representing the seller and one representing the buyer), or 5% total. That 5% is paid by the seller.
When I represent a buyer, I receive 2.5% from the seller and give 1.5% back to the buyer.
Example:
Rose Booth Realty
Your Purchase Price
$500,000
My Commission from Seller 2.5%
$12,500

Sellers
You pay a 3.5% listing commission instead of the standard 5%.
When a house is bought or sold, commission is paid to agents in exchange for their services. The ‘NORMAL’ rate in Northern California is 2.5% for each agent (one representing the seller and one representing the buyer), or 5% total. That 5% is paid by you, the seller.
If I represent the seller, they pay 3.5% instead of the usual 5% (1% going to me and 2.5% going to the buyers’ agent).
Example:
Rose Booth Realty
Your selling price
$500,000
Total commission you pay (3.5%)
17,500
(1% to me $5,000 + 2.5% to buyer’s agent $12,500)
