Real estate commission is a percentage of the home's final sale price. The listing agent typically charges 2.5–3%, and the buyer's agent charges another 2.5–3%. On a $400,000 home, that's $20,000–$24,000 total — paid by the seller at closing.
The National Association of Realtors settled an antitrust lawsuit in 2024 that changed how buyer agent commissions are structured. Sellers are no longer required to offer buyer's agent compensation through the MLS. Commissions are now fully negotiable — but most agents still expect 2.5–3%.
Yes. SkipCommission replaces the listing agent with AI. You get professional pricing analysis, AI-written listing descriptions, marketing materials, showing scheduling, and offer comparison — everything a traditional listing agent does — for $499 flat.
After the NAR settlement, you are not required to offer buyer's agent compensation. However, offering a buyer's agent commission (typically 2–3%) can attract more buyers. Even if you offer 2.5%, you still save your entire listing agent fee — $6,000–$15,000+ depending on your home price.
