How Buyers Save With Webdigs
In most real estate transactions, there are two brokers involved: a seller’s broker and a buyer’s broker. Both brokers are represented by agents, who work directly with the clients. As payment for listing a home, the seller’s broker charges a commission, which is usually 6% of the total sale price of the home. The seller’s broker then splits the commission between the two brokerages; the seller’s broker typically keeps 3.3% of the price of the home and the buyer’s broker is given 2.7%.
For example, if you're buying a home for $350,000, the typical 6% commission is $21,000. Of that $21,000, the seller’s broker receives $11,550 and the buyer’s broker receives $9,450.
If you’re buying that same home and are represented by Webdigs, we would receive the $9,450 commission from the seller's broker, retain 1/3 of it or $3,000, whichever is greater, and then reward you with the rest. So in this case, you'd receive $6,300 after closing.
