Traditional Listing Fees Explained
Listings fee are set by brokers and agents inside their offices before they even meet with you. When you try to negotiate, agents and brokers will give you list of reasons why they need to charge high prices to market your home including, franchise fees, excessive brokerage advertising (this is the broker advertising themselves not your property), photography and paying the buyers agent. That is because the listing agent splits the listing fee with the cooperating agents. The buyers agent. This usually results in 30-50% of the listing fees going to the buyers agent. As an example, a 6% listing fee negotiated with the seller will offer cooperating broker 1-3%. retaining 3% .
Buyers agent fees are a requirement to list your home in the
MLS (Multiple Listing Service).

Why 2% Now?
After selling real estate locally in the Florida Panhandle for 18 years now, I have seen home prices skyrocket. They have increased 60% in just the past 5 years alone. That means real estate agents got a raise too. In 2020 the median home selling price in Okaloosa County Florida was $235,000. In 2022 it is now $376,000. The difference between commission rates have largely stayed the same though the prices have increase in the double digits. A 6% commission in 2020 would equal $14,100 real estate commission paid by the seller. In 2022, that same commission structure equals a $22,560 listing fee to the seller. When was the last time you saw a home for sale under $300,000? With todays economy I want to help you keep your homes equity.
Don't pay more if you don't have to.
After all, Homeowners that sell, become buyers as well.
Call Silver Sands Real Estate today and tell them you want to
list and sell your home for 2%.
