Frequently Asked Questions

Can I negotiate commission?

Yes — commission has always been negotiable, and 2024 rule changes made it more explicit. Flat-fee and discount brokers offer 1-2% alternatives.

Who pays the commission?

Traditionally the seller pays, and it's split between both agents. Buyers may now negotiate their own agent's compensation directly under the new rules.
